Concepts: Where Cognitive Science Went Wrong by Jerry A. Fodor examines how modern cognitive science has misunderstood the nature of concepts. Fodor critiques prototype and other popular theories, arguing that concepts are basic and atomic rather than learned or definitional, offering a rigorous and influential perspective on thought, language, and mental representation.
