 Book Review
Haugeland therefore concludes that "the individuals or tokens of which our sentences are true are just as ‘relative’ to the level of description as are the kinds or types into which those sentences sort them" (pp.
Haugeland argues that the Cartesian division between mind and body as well as mind and world may well be the source of more confusion than insight with regard to the nature of intelligence.
Haugeland not only questions the Cartesian division between the mind and the body, but also argues (along the lines of neo-pragmatism) that human intelligence and competencies are only intelligible in terms of their higher unity, where the higher unity is not to be understood as merely the sum of individual knowledge and competencies.

 FOR JOURNAL OF PHILOSOPHY
Haugeland=s work on the conceptual foundations of cognitive science has been deservedly influential, and several of the classics are reprinted here: his auspicious debut with a target article in Behavioral and Brain Sciences (1978), AThe Nature and Plausibility of Cognitivism,@ and AThe Intentionality All-Stars@ (1990).
Haugeland sets out to show that the received wisdom is not just bedeviled by unsolved problems (everybody knows that), but that these problems are unlikely to be solved since this underlying assumption is a huge mistake.
Haugeland=s solution, which grows on me, is to show how and why it is hard to Aconstitute@ a world (that takes care of anything-goes relativism) but not because there is a privileged way that the world--the real world--has always been constituted.

Haugeland doesn't attempt any general discussion of this, although many of his examples are relevant.
Haugeland's second mistake is to omit discussing mathematical logic as a way of representing the machine's information about the world and the consequences of action in the world.
Haugeland is mainly concerned with whether AI is philosophically ok as a scientific subject.

 Conventionalism, Objectivity and Constitution
Haugeland thinks that there is a sense in which objectivity is tied to "constitution,"[2] and perhaps the paradigmatic example of a constituted domain is the game of chess.
Constitutive standards are taken by Haugeland to have the status conventionalists assigned to the axioms of geometry: viewed from outside the conceptual framework, they collectively define the framework itself, but from within the framework, they express claims that are necessarily true of the objects within the framework.
Haugeland claims that "skill repair is just the sort of multi-factor trading off or equilibrating that is familiar from holist epistemology"(336), but holist epistemology lacks the kind of inegalitarian structure Haugeland proposes.

I have argued in my new book, The Intentional Stance, (Dennett, 1987) that clinging to the doctrine of original intentionality is the primary source of perplexity in contemporary Anglo-American philosophy of mind, but the arguments for that braod indictment cannot be presented in the short compass of this introductory talk.

" Deciding where the truth lies between these extremes is the main purpose of John Haugeland's marvelously lucid and witty book on what artificial intelligence is all about.
" Artificial intelligence, Haugeland notes, is based on a very good idea, which might well be right and just as well might not.
The idea that human thinking and machine computing are radically the same provides the central theme for his illuminating and provocative book about this exciting new field.
