Exploring Science The Cognition and Development of Discovery Processes David Klahr; Foreword by Herbert A. Simon Paper / February 2002 David Klahr suggests that we now know enough about cognition—and hence about everyday thinking—to advance our understanding of scientific thinking.

Models of Bounded Rationality, Vol. 3 Emperically Grounded Economic Reason Herbert A. Simon Cloth / June 1997 Offering alternative models based on such concepts as satisficing (acceptance of viable choices that may not be the undiscoverable optimum) and bounded rationality (the limited extent to which rational calculation can direct human behavior), Simon shows concretely why more empirical research based on experiments and direct observation, rather than just statistical analysis of economic aggregates, is needed.

The Sciences of the Artificial, 3rd Edition Herbert A. Simon Paper / October 1996 Continuing his exploration of the organization of complexity and the science of design, this new edition of Herbert Simon's classic work on artificial intelligence adds a chapter that sorts out the current themes and tools—chaos, adaptive systems, genetic algorithms—for analyzing complexity and complex systems. Price $34.00 | ADD TO CART | ||
Protocol Analysis, Revised Edition Verbal Reports as Data K. Anders Ericsson and Herbert A. Simon Paper / April 1993 The authors review major advances in verbal reports over the past decade, including new evidence on how giving verbal reports affects subjects' cognitive processes, and on the validity and completeness of such reports. Price $44.00 | ADD TO CART | ||
Scientific Discovery Computational Explorations of the Creative Processes Pat Langley, Herbert A. Simon, Gary L. Bradshaw and Jan M. Zytkow Paper / February 1987 Scientific Discovery examines the nature of scientific research and reviews the arguments for and against a normative theory of discovery; describes the evolution of the BACON programs, which discover quantitative empirical laws and invent new concepts; presents programs that discover laws in qualitative and quantitative data; and ties the results together, suggesting how a combined and extended program might find research problems, invent new instruments, and invent appropriate problem representations. Price $35.00 | ADD TO CART | ||
Models of Bounded Rationality, Volume 1 Economic Analysis and Public Policy Herbert A. Simon Paper / April 1984 Most of Simon's papers on classical and neoclassical economic theory are contained in volume one. Price $54.00 | ADD TO CART | ||
