Blueprints of the Mind

How does the brain produce the thoughts, perceptions, and decisions that shape our experience of the world?

In this chapter, we explore how cognitive scientists build computation models to reverse-engineer cognition. We will ask: what computations happen in the brain when we perceive an object? How are raw sensory signals transformed into meaningful concepts? What is actually an internal mental representation?
