Book Description:

Cognitive science addresses cognition on two levels: individual and universal. To fill the gap between the Romantic vision of the solitary thinker and the cognitive-psychological view revolving around a search for universal foundations of cognition, Zerubavel charts a social realm of mind, one focused on conventional, normative aspects of thinking.
