Valsiner, Jaan ; & Veer, René van der - The Social Mind: Construction of the IdeaCambridge, Cambridge University Press, (2000). orig.wrappers. 23x15cm, xi,488 pp, PAPERBACK.. Minor rubbing. VG. ¶ The Social Mind charts the intellectual history of the idea of socially constructed mind through the examination of four key theorists - Lev Vygotsky, George Herbert Mead, James Mark Baldwin, and Pierre Janet. An analysis of the theories of these scholars and the social climate in which they worked will be invaluable to contemporary social scientists. In their analysis of the social construction of mind, the authors elaborate on their notion of intellectual interdependency in the development of scientific ideas and they take a new look at how progress in science is a socially constructed entity. Their well constructed, ambitious volume makes an important and timely contribution to the theory and history of psychology" - Publisher's description USD 40.00 [Appr.: EURO 34.25 | £UK 29.75 | JP¥ 5877] Book number BOOKS016487Iis offered by:
