Description

Explore the deep connection between language and the human mind with Metaphor: Implications and Applications. While much research focuses on how we understand metaphors, this work looks deeper into the Platonic questions of how mental structures influence these processes. It addresses a significant gap in current psychological research by moving beyond speculation to examine how metaphors actually affect human behavior. This collection provides empirical verification for theories often discussed in clinical and political arenas. Instead of relying on postdictive accounts, the editors have compiled research that investigates the real-world impact of metaphorical language. This book is a vital resource for those studying applied psychology and the cognitive processes that shape our daily interactions and decision-making.
