Words and Minds takes a lively and accessible look at how we use language
to combine our mental resources and get things done. Examining everyday
language and drawing on a wide range of research, but always with a light
style, Neil Mercer provides a unified account of the relationship between
thought and language. Mercer analyses real-life examples of language being
used effectively, or otherwise, in many different settings, including
workplaces and schools, the home, the internet and the courtroom, and
offers practical insights into how we might improve our communication
skills. Words and Minds will appeal to anyone interested in language and
the psychology of everyday life.
