Abstract

The work behind this excellent and thorough treatise on analogy began during the authors' days in graduate school over 20 years ago. Holyoak, now professor of Psychology at the University of California, Los Angeles, and Thagard, Professor of Philosophy and Adjunct Professor of Psychology and Computer Science at the University of Waterloo, have produced a gem of a book. Commencing with an explanation of their theory of analogy, the book contains a wealth of information, particularly on the development of analogical thought in young humans as well as in lower mammals.
