About the Author

John Holland is Professor of Psychology at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.

Review

A broad, sweeping inquiry of what concepts are, what learning is, and how it can take place at all.... Induction is a deep synthesis of epistemology, evolution and computation. This path-breaking treatise will undoubtedly come to be recognized as a major step toward an interdisciplinary explanation of mentality.

(Douglas Hofstadter)
