Most of the contributions to this volume are revised versions of papers presented at two symposia, organised by the editors, at the 4th Conference of the European Association for Research on Learning and Instruction in Turku, Finland, in 1991. Four of the contributors were specifically invited to submit a paper for this volume, so that the various approaches to intelligence, mind and reasoning are better presented.

This book brings together both theoretical and empirical research directed toward the role of strategies in deductive reasoning. It offers the first systematic attempt to discuss the role of strategies for deductive reasoning. The empirical chapters correspond well with the main issues in the study of deduction, namely propositional reasoning, spatial reasoning, and syllogistic reasoning. In addition, several chapters present a theoretical analysis of deduction, related to the concept strategy. The book also presents data about the role of strategies for statistical and social reasoning.
This book will be of interest to researchers and students of cognitive psychology. It will also be of value to people working in Artificial Intelligence, because it highlights results on how humans use strategies while tackling deductive puzzles.
