When Minds Converse

A Social Genealogy of the Human Soul

Beschreibung

When Minds Converse argues that we do not speak because our human minds are special; our minds are special because we can speak. The book is original in method as well as adventurous in scope, developing an empirically informed thought experiment to defend its society-first view of the mind.
