The central theme of this book is how we form and organize our attitudes. The author traces more traditional views of attitudes from the philosophy of Hume through early psychological writings to more recent research in connectionism and cognitive science.

Attitudes, Chaos and the Connectionist Mind Summary

Attitudes, Chaos and the Connectionist Mind by J. Richard Eiser (University of Sheffield, UK)

This book presents a broad-ranging and fascinating examination of attitudes: how we form them; how we organize them towards others; and whether they are inherently human or could also be developed by computers. Professor Eiser suggests there are fundamental objections to the idea of a computer having a sense of self or a set of attitutdes.
