This week's fifth and final post applies the reason-responsive #consequentialist view of rational inquiry to shed light on bounded #rationality, the Standard Picture, and the #epistemology of inquiry.

I just added Oxford University Press to my list of spammers.

The first part describes the history and contemporary practices of empirical #psychology [and in] the second part of the book, I explore popular forms of #psychology such as #selfHelp literature and its reliance on magical thinking."
