Having contributed to the great rationality debate in cognitive science, I am quite happy to see it evolve into the new reflectionism exemplified in this volume. The chapters amply illustrate that we have arrived at a more nuanced view of the interactions between intuition and reflective thinking. --Keith E. Stanovich, University of Toronto, author of The Rationality QuotientDemonstrations of human irrationality are interesting and profound, but they have led too many people to reason that people are incapable of reason. This volume puts the question of human rationality in proper perspective, and offers a needed correction to the current fatalism about reason, facts, and objectivity. --Steven Pinker, Johnstone Professor of Psychology, Harvard University, and author of How the Mind Works and Enlightenment Now
