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.

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 EditionThe 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 EditionProtocol 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 DiscoveryScientific 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.

夢見Herbert Simon

妙的是夢見Herbert Simon當上我們的日文老師 (小班) 我一句中的漢字都唸不出來  後來他出去 我以為是交涉 回來拿甜點服務我們


幾年前的一夢是他抽空來訪 講學 肯定下回一定再來訪 此夢甚佳 可惜當時沒記下

1995 Oklahoma City 爆炸作為里程碑

On April 19, 1995, a truck bomb exploded outside the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City, killing 168 people and injuring 500. (Timothy McVeigh was later convicted of federal murder charges and executed.)  這事件 Simon 將它寫進書中 可能是人工科學
