Essays on the Structure of Social Science Modelsby Herbert A. Simon , Franklin M. Fisher, Albert AndoISBN 0262511614 (0-262-51161-4)

› Find signed collectible books: 'Essays on the Structure of Social Science Models'Book summary:A set of related papers dealing with the meaning of causality in simulataneous dynamic equation systems. Investigation of the systems which only approximately satisfy the conditions enabling the definition of causality, leads to a set of limiting theorems concerning the dynamic behavior of such systems over time, and estimation procedures for the parameters of such systems. Implications of these theorems for some well-known propositions in economics and other social sciences are considered.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Exploring Science: The Cognitional Development of Discovery Processes'Book summary:Einstein said that "the whole of science is nothing more than a refinement of everyday thinking." David Klahr suggests that we now know enough about cognitionand hence about everyday thinkingto advance our understanding of scientific thinking. In this book he sets out to describe the cognitive and developmental processes that have enabled scientists to make the discoveries that comprise the body of information we call "scientific knowledge."
Over the past decade Klahr and his colleagues have conducted extensive laboratory experiments in which they create discovery contexts, computer-based environments, to evoke the kind of thinking characteristic of scientific discovery in the "real world." In attempting to solve the problems posed by the discovery tasks, experiment participants (from preschoolers through university students, as well as laypersons) use many of the same higher-order cognitive processes used by practicing scientists. Through this work Klahr integrates two disparate approachesthe content-based approach and the process-based approachto present a comprehensive model of the psychology of scientific discovery.

Models of Bounded Rationality Vol. 3 : Empirically Grounded Economic Reasonby Herbert A. SimonISBN 0262193728 (0-262-19372-8)

› Find signed collectible books: 'Models of Bounded Rationality Vol. 3 : Empirically Grounded Economic Reason'Book summary:Throughout Herbert Simon's wide-ranging careerin public administration, business administration, economics, cognitive psychology, philosophy, artificial intelligence, and computer sciencehis central aim has been to explain the nature of the thought processes that people use in making decisions.
The third volume of Simon's collected papers continues this theme, bringing together work on this and other economics-related topics that have occupied his attention in the 1980s and 1990s: how to represent causal ordering formally in dynamic systems, the implications for society of new electronic information systems, employee and managerial motivation in the business firm (specifically the implications for economics of the propensity of human beings to identify with the goals of organizations), and the state of economics itself.
Offering alternative models based on such concepts as satisficing (acceptance of viable choices that may not be the undiscoverable optimum) and bounded rationality (the limited extent to which rational calculation can direct human behavior), Simon shows concretely why more empirical research based on experiments and direct observation, rather than just statistical analysis of economic aggregates, is needed.
The twenty-seven articles, in five sections, each with an introduction by the author, examine the modeling of economic systems, technological change: information technology, motivation and the theory of the firm, and behavioral economics and bounded rationality.

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Sciences of the Artificial'Book summary:Continuing his exploration of the organization of complexity and the science of design, this new edition of Herbert Simon's classic work on artificial intelligence adds a chapter that sorts out the current themes and tools -- chaos, adaptive systems, genetic algorithms -- for analyzing complexity and complex systems.There are updates throughout the book as well. These take into account important advances in cognitive psychology and the science of design while confirming and extending the book's basic thesis: that a physical symbol system has the necessary and sufficient means for intelligent action. The chapter "Economic Reality" has also been revised to reflect a change in emphasis in Simon's thinking about the respective roles of organizations and markets in economic systems.
