Philosophy and Computer Science (Explorations in Philosophy) by Timothy Colburn
Requirements: .PDF reader, 11.4 Mb
Overview: Colburn has a doctorate in philosophy and an advanced degree in computer science; he's worked as a philosophy professor, a computer programmer, and a research scientist in artificial intelligence. Here he discusses the philosophical foundations of artificial intelligence; the new encounter of science and philosophy (logic, models of the mind and of reasoning, epistemology); and the philosophy of computer science (touching on math, abstraction, software, and ontology).
Genre: Non-Fiction > Faith, Beliefs & Philosophy
This volume provides a lucid and stimulating introduction to some of the most fascinating ideas explored in contemporary philosophy. It is about the philosophical foundations of artificial intelligence in particular, and the contributions that philosophy and computer science can make to each other. It asks where computer science fits as a science, how philosophy can guide computer science, and how work in computer science can shape one's philosophy.
The author, who is both a philosopher and a computer scientist, supplies a framework that is historical and analytical, explaining the philosophical origins of many problems that are raised by modern computing machines.
