Description

Explore the transformative power of language and thought in Metaphor and Cognition: An Interactionist Approach. Published by Springer as part of the Studies in Cognitive Systems series, this work examines how metaphors do more than just point to existing similarities between objects; they actually create those similarities. While many cognitive science studies overlook these creative metaphors, this book places them at the center of the conversation. It provides a detailed look at how similarity is constructed within an interactive framework of cognition. By drawing on the constructivist views of Nelson Goodman and Jean Piaget, the text addresses the complex relationship between mind and reality. This study is an essential resource for those studying psychology, cognitive science, and the mechanics of human thought. It offers a unique perspective on how our mental frameworks help shape our perception of the world, resolving deep questions regarding ontology and structure in the cognitive process.
