   R. D. S. Raizada (1999). "A fruitful blend, or a trinket-box? A book
   review of The MIT Encyclopedia of the Cognitive Sciences." Forthcoming
   in Neural Networks.

This review compares the MIT Encyclopedia to other recent reference works
covering similar subject matter, e.g. M. S. Gazzaniga (Ed.) (1999) "The
New Cognitive Neurosciences - 2nd Edition", and also discusses the extent
to which it succeeds in showing interdisciplinary links between the
various branches of Cognitive Science.

Please let me know if you have any problems with downloading the
preprint.

Yours,
