Description

"Its publication should be a major event for cognitive linguistics and should pose a major challenge for cognitive science.

In addition, it should have repercussions in a variety of disciplines, ranging from anthropology and psychology to epistemology and the philosophy of science. . . . Lakoff asks: What do categories of language and thought reveal about the human mind?

Offering both general theory and minute details, Lakoff shows that categories reveal a great deal."—David E.

Leary, American Scientist
