Book Description
This book deals with the cognitive foundation of the theory of social action. The social sciences are still guided by models of social action, far from the empirical reality of the psychology of action. While economics seems to have made greater progress in accepting the changes to the theory of action derived from cognitive science (see, for example, the 2002 Nobel prize for economics awarded to Daniel Kahneman), sociology is still being oriented on the dualism of hermeneutics vs. structuralism, which leaves very little room for a cognitive theory of social action. The unique features of the book are its combination of epistemology, philosophy of mind and cognitive science in order to renew and overcome the limits of the current methodologies of social science and in particular methodological individualism. Methodological cognitivism is proposed as an alternative to the holistic character of structuralism, to the intentionalist and rationalist features of methodological individualism, and to the relativistic character of hermeneutics and ethnomethodology.

Book Description
Cet ouvrage réconcilie la philosophie, la biologie, la sociologie et les sciences cognitives grâce à un dénominateur commun, la conscience. Il en présente un aspect particulier, le concept d’auto-motivation de champ d’activité en tant que moteur biologique d’un état de conscience, et dont l’informatique systémique permet de révéler l’existence. Si la conscience est mal définie, un cadre réduit permet d’en donner une définition plus précise, observable malgré toute la complexité psychologique, sociale et technique de l’individu. Ces observations sont de deux natures : une nature d’activité principale et une nature cognitivo-linguistique, modulées par des facteurs de contrôle intrinsèques et extrinsèques. L’argument exposé consiste à présenter un état de conscience relatif à la notion de besoin informationnel instinctif, donc physiologique, et dont les traces porteuses sur les supports physiques (revues, abonnements, etc.) ou numériques (sms, web, etc.), sont analysables par l’extraction de connaissances.

Book Description
Familiarity underpins our engagement with music. This book highlights theoretical and empirical considerations about familiarity from three perspectives: listening, musicology and performance. Part I, ’Listening’, addresses familiarity as it relates to listeners’ behaviour and responses to music, specifically in regulating our choice and exposure to music on a daily basis; how we get to know music through regular listening; how comfortable we feel in a Western concert environment; and music’s efficacy as a pain-reliever. Part II, ’Musicology’ exposes the notion of familiarity from varied stances, including appreciation of music in our own and other cultures through ethnomusicology; exploration of the perception of sounds via music analysis; philosophical reflection on the efficiency of communication in musicology; evaluation of the impact of researchers’ musical experiences on their work; and the influence of familiarity in music education. Part III, ’Performance’, focuses on the effects of familiarity in relation to different aspects of Western art and popular performance, including learning and memorizing music; examination of ’groove’ in popular performance; exploration of the role of familiarity in shaping socio-emotional behaviour between members of an ensemble; and consideration about the effects of the unique type of familiarity gained by musicians through the act of performance itself.

Book Description
"Working as a marketing researcher remains an intellectually stimulating, creative and rewarding career. Marketing research is a huge and growing industry at the forefront of innovation in many sectors of the economy. However, few industries can have been presented with as many challenges and opportunities as those faced by marketing research due to the growing amounts of data generated by modern technology. Founded upon the enormously successful US edition, and building upon the previous five European editions, the sixth edition of this book seeks to maintain its position as the leading marketing research text, focused on the key challenges facing marketing research in a European context. As with previous editions, this aims to be comprehensive, authoritative and applied. As a result, the book covers all the topics in previous editions while including updates that reflect the changes and challenges that have impacted the marketing research sector since the fifth edition was published. This includes the ever shifting impact of new technologies, the growth of 'insight' and the shifting role of research ethics, for example, through considering the impact of GDPR. This edition has been significantly updated, with new content, updated cases studies and a major focus on the issues and methods generated by new technologies"--
