Embodied Cognition
Embodied cognition is a recent development in psychology that practitioners often present as a superseding standard cognitive science.In this outstanding introduction, Lawrence Shapiro sets out the central themes and debates surrounding embodied cognition, explaining and assessing the work of many of the key figures in the field, including Lawrence Barsalou, Daniel Casasanto, Andy Clark, Alva Noë, and Michael Spivey. Beginning with an outline of the theoretical and methodological commitments of standard cognitive science, Shapiro then examines philosophical and empirical arguments surrounding the traditional perspective, setting the stage for a detailed examination of the embodied alternative.He introduces topics such as dynamical systems theory, ecological psychology, robotics, and connectionism, before addressing core issues in philosophy of mind such as mental representation and extended cognition. This second edition has been updated and revised throughout and includes new chapters that both expand on earlier topics and that introduce new material on embodied concepts, preference formation, and emotion.Including helpful chapter summaries and annotated further reading at the end of each chapter, Embodied Cognition, Second Edition is essential reading for all students of philosophy of mind, psychology, and cognitive science.

Innateness and Cognition
The question of innateness, or nativism, is one of the most heated problems in philosophy, reaching as far back as Plato but generating fierce debates in contemporary philosophy and cognitive science.Which aspects of the human mind are innate and which are the products of experience?Do we have any innate concepts or knowledge or are all the contents of the mind acquired by means of learning?Innateness and Cognition is a much-needed overview of this important problem.Through addressing the following topics M.J. Cain argues for a nativist perspective which, nevertheless, finds an important role for culture and social learning in cognitive development: the nature of innatenessthe coherence and explanatory value of the concept of innatenessthe acquisition of concepts and the role of learning in conceptual developmentdomain specific knowledge, including the 'massive modularity' thesis and the theory of core knowledge domainscognitive development relating the theory of mind and mathematicsthe relationship between biological and cultural evolution and their respective roles in cognitive developmentlanguage and innateness, particularly Chomsky's linguistic nativism and challenges to thismorality, moral judgment, and innateness. Innateness and Cognition is an excellent resource for those researching and studying philosophy of psychology and philosophy of mind, as well as those interested in foundational issues in cognitive science, psychology, linguistics, and anthropology.

Anthropomorphism, Anthropogenesis, Cognition
Anthropomorphism could be described as a production of analogies generated by human cognition.As a result, anthropomorphism is a universal cultural trait present in all cultures at all times, and one of the cognitive fundamentals of humankind: that of projecting a human corporal image over the surrounding world.It is present in the imaginary, mythologies, religions, and material culture of all ages, being an important subject of archaeology. This book approaches anthropomorphism from the moment of anthropogenesis, tracing its presence in nature and material culture in prehistory and Antiquity. The cover image serves as a metaphor, joining together two perceptions of anthropomorphism: a rational one, that of the female columns at the Erechtheion temple in Athens; and a case of pareidolia, namely a figure with outstretched arms on a rock pillar at the Externsteine rocks in Germany.
