Inside, readers will discover essays that explore current issues in epistemology, philosophy of mind, logic, and philosophy of science from the lens of computation. Coverage also examines applied issues related to ethical, social, and political interest.</p><p>The contributors first explore how computation has changed philosophical inquiry. Computers are now capable of joining humans in exploring foundational issues. Thus, we can ponder machine-generated explanation, thought, agency, and other quite fascinating concepts.</p><p>The papers are also concerned with normative aspects of the computer and information technology revolution. They examine technology-specific analyses of key challenges, from Big Data to autonomous robots to expert systems for infrastructure control and financial services.</p><p>The virtue of a collection that ranges over philosophical questions, such as this one does, lies in the prospects for a more integrated understanding of issues. These are early days in the partnership between philosophy and information technology. Philosophers and researchers are still sorting out many foundational issues. They will need to deploy all of the tools of philosophy to establish this foundation. This volume admirably showcases those tools in the hands of some excellent scholars.</p>...3379752Philosophy and Computing19252139https://www.gandhi.com.mx/philosophy-and-computing-9783319610436/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/2391617/1841f770-7b74-46a5-9ef1-6d8a5281ada3.jpg?v=638383912506700000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20179783319610436_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_<p>This book features papers from CEPE-IACAP 2015, a joint international conference focused on the philosophy of computing.
