About the Author: Jerry A.
One of the most notable aspects of Fodor\'s work is that it articulates features not only of speculative cognitive architectures but also of current research in artificial intelligence.
This view of mental architecture is consistent with the historical tradition of faculty psychology while integrating a computational approach to mental processes.

Fodor postulates a vertical and modular psychological organization underlying biologically coherent behaviors.
