Rethinking Commonsense Psychology: A Critique of Folk Psychology, Theory of Mind and Simulation: 1 (New Directions in Philosophy and Cognitive Science)

by M. Ratcliffe (Author)

Synopsis

This book offers arguments against the view that interpersonal understanding involves a 'folk' or 'commonsense' psychology, a view which Ratcliffe suggests is a theoretically motivated abstraction. His alternative account draws on phenomenology, neuroscience and developmental psychology, exploring patterned interactions in shared social situations.
