Knowledge in Minds · Individual and Collective Processes in Cognition

Many texts in cognitive psychology deal with the details of cognitive processes as individually defined. This text provides an account of cognition that focuses upon the cumulative and share nature of human enterprise. It aims to adopt a balanced approach by considering both theories. The result is a wide ranging detour that starts off with cognitive science, then diverts into the domains of developmental and social psychology before ending up in territory that is normally occupied by historians and evolutionary biologists.
