Description:
How do minds understand other minds? This is a question that we are now able to start answering, thanks to great advances in cognitive science in recent years. Stephen Stich is one of the most adventurous and admired thinkers in the field; here he joins forces with Shaun Nichols on a book that explains and interprets the latest work in philosophy and psychology to readers in both fields, and which offers their own original synthesis of 'simulation theory' and 'theory theory'. Mindreading is another trailblazing volume in the prestigious interdisciplinary Oxford Cognitive Science series.
