The Act of Thinking

چکیده
“While many have begun making the case for ‘embodied cognition’—resituating the mind in the body—Derek Melser takes the next step: resituating the embodied mind in its social milieu. Cognition is argued to be something that people do, and is thus publicly observable in their interactions rather than hidden away inside their heads. The Act of Thinking is a pivotal book and a significant contribution to the ‘second cognitive revolution.’” —Andy Lock, Professor of Psychology, Massey University, New Zealand
