adam_text | Creating Scientific Concepts
Nancy J. Nersessian
How do novel scientific concepts arise? In Creating
Scientific Concepts, Nancy Nersessian seeks to
answer this central but virtually unasked question
in the problem of conceptual change. She argues
that the popular image of novel concepts and
profound insight bursting forth in a blinding flash
of inspiration is mistaken. Instead, novel concepts
are shown to arise out of the interplay of three
factors: an attempt to solve specific problems; the
use of conceptual, analytical, and material resources
provided by the cognitive-social-cultural context of
the problem; and dynamic processes of reasoning
that extend ordinary cognition.
Focusing on the third factor, Nersessian draws
on cognitive science research and historical accounts
of scientific practices to show how scientific and
ordinary cognition lie on a continuum, and how
problem-solving practices in one illuminate
practices in the other. Her investigations of scientific
practices show conceptual change as deriving from
the use of analogies,
imagistic
representations, and
thought experiments, integrated with experimental
investigations and mathematical analyses. She
presents a view of constructed models as hybrid
objects, serving as intermediaries between targets
and analogical sources in bootstrapping processes.
Extending these results, she argues that these
complex cognitive operations and structures are
not mere aids to discovery, but mat together they
constitute a powerful form of reasoning
—
model-
based reasoning
—
that generates novelty. This new
approach to mental modeling and analogy, together
with Nersessian s cognitive-historical approach,
makes Creating Scientific Concepts equally valuable
to cognitive science and philosophy of science.
Nancy J. Nersessian
is Regents Professor of Cognitive
Science in the School of Interactive Computing
at Georgia Institute of Technology. She is the author
of Faraday to Einstein: Constructing Meaning in
Scientific Theories, and numerous articles on the
creative reasoning practices of scientists and
on science learning.
