Patterns, Thinking, And Cognition by Howard Margolis
A Theory of Judgment
A concise examination of how humans perceive, impose, and use patterns to organize perception and reasoning, arguing that pattern-based mental structures both enable efficient thought and produce systematic errors; it analyzes processes such as classification, analogy, and causal inference, shows how social context and existing conceptual frameworks shape which patterns are noticed and accepted, and draws implications for scientific reasoning, public belief formation, and communication.
