Matthew Ratcliffe

Rethinking Commonsense Psychology (eBook, PDF)

A Critique of Folk Psychology, Theory of Mind and Simulation

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

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.
