Reviews
  • 'By concentrating on the question of how non-linguistic thought is possible and on its scope and limits, he has substantially advanced the debate. He combines impressive mastery of empirical findings from the cognitive sciences with well-informed and sophisticated philosophical discussions. For this reason alone the book will be compulsory reading in both quarters.' - Times Literary Supplement

Description
Thinking Without Words provides a challenging new theory of the nature of non-linguistic thought. José Luis Bermúdez offers a conceptual framework for treating human infants and non-human animals as genuine thinkers. The book is written with an interdisciplinary readership in mind and will appeal to philosophers, psychologists, and students of animal behavior.
