From Information to Knowledge: Conceptual and Content Analysis by Computer

by Klaus Schmidt (Editor), Ephraim Nissan (Editor)

These papers explore the linguistic, philosophical and computational problems encountered when attempting to attribute meaning, whether to words or to electronic data. This volume argues that the search for a theory of human thinking and knowledge now crosses all disciplinary boundaries with system biology, biophysics and neuroscience having as much relevance as philosophy and linguistics.
