A number of recent topics such as Kuhns work, Poppers method, the nature of mind, etc. have caused me to consult a book written by my erstwhile colleague Clark Glymour, a philosophy professor at CMU (formerly of Princeton, UCSD, etc.). I wonder if that book would be of interest to others who read this list. It is Thinking Things Through: An Introduction to Philosophical Issues and Achievements, MIT Press 1998. The main sections are: The Idea of a Proof; Experience, Knowledge and Belief; and Minds. Bayesian reasoning is also discussed, among other things.
