Sinossi
Culture in Mind is an ethnographic portrait of the human mind. Using case studies from both western and nonwestern societies. Shore argues that "cultural models" are necessary to the functioning of the human mind. Drawing on recent developments in cognitive science as well as anthropology, Culture in Mind explores the cognitive world of culture in the ongoing production of meaning in everyday thinking and feeling.

Recensione
Culture in Mind is breathtakingly multidisciplinary and scholarly. In his discussions, Shore exposes models from various disciplines in a way that is likely to enrich readers coming from a number of different academic backgrounds. Shore's approach to teh problem of culture in mind is strikingly balanced. ... Owing to the book's multidisciplinary eloquence and the central role psychological factors are given, Culture in Mind is of tremendous relevance to psychologists - cognitive scientists, neuropsychologists, personality, developmental and (cross-)cultural psychologists alike. Shore's scholarship convinces. His colourful case examples help illustrate any hard-to-reach theoretical points. Furthermore, his multidisciplinary approach succeeds in arousing curiosity, and his passion for the subjects inspires. In short, Culture in Mind is a book psychologists in general cannot afford to ignore. (Frank Laroi, Theory & Psychology, 2001)

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Despite the recognized importance of cultural diversity in understanding the modern world, the emerging science of cognitive psychology has relied far more on experimental psychology, neurobiology, and computer science than on cultural anthropology for its models of how we think. In this exciting new book, anthropologist Bradd Shore has created the first study linking multi-culturalism to cognitive psychology, exploring the complex relationship between culture in public institutions and in mental representations. In so doing, he answers in a completely new way the age old question of whether humans are basically the same psychologically, independent of cultures, or basically diverse because of cultural differences. The first half of the book emphasizes cultural models, from Australian Aboriginal rituals and Samoan comedy skits, to more familiar terrain, including a study of baseball as a cultural model for Americans. Along the way, the author sheds new and novel light on many familiar institutions, from educational curricula and shopping malls to modular furniture and cyberpunk fiction. These observations are then linked to theoretical developments in linguistics, semiotics, and neuroscience, creating a bold new approach to understanding the role of culture in everyday meaning making. The author argues that culture must be considered an intrinsic component of the human mind to a degree that most psychologists and even many anthropologists have not recognized. This new position of cultural models will make absorbing reading for psychologists, anthropologists, linguists, and philosophers, and to anyone interested in the issues of cultural diversity, multiculturalism, or cognitive science in general.
