Anatomy of the Mind: Exploring Psychological Mechanisms and Processes With the Clarion Cognitive Architecture

This book aims to understand human cognition and psychology through a comprehensive computational theory of the mind, namely, a "cognitive architecture." The goal is to develop a unified framework for understanding the human mind, and within the unified framework, to develop process-based, mechanistic explanations of a variety of psychological phenomena.

Dr. Ron Sun is Professor of Cognitive Sciences at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. A well-known cognitive scientist, Ron Sun explores the fundamental structures of the human mind. He aims for the synthesis of many intellectual ideas into a coherent model of the human mind. The goal is to come up with a cognitive architecture that captures a variety of psychological processes and provides unified explanations of a wide range of data and phenomena.
