Praise for the First Edition:"With this collection of essays, written by active researchers based in the US and Europe, Shapiro provides an up-to-date description of the theory’s historical roots and philosophical underpinnings, along with supporting empirical evidence from human studies employing cognitive tasks and neuroimaging. … Given the fact that research in this area cuts across multiple disciplines - including philosophy, psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, cognitive science, robotics, and artificial intelligence - and is rapidly expanding, this is a timely and important work for scholars. … Summing Up: Highly recommended." - K. G. Akers, CHOICE"This excellent collection arrives at a most appropriate time in the history of cognitive science. The editor’s choice of topics and contributors is skillful, and remarkably - given how difficult these topics can become - the chapters will be accessible to specialists and non-specialists alike." - Gordon Bermant, University of Pennsylvania, USA"This is an essential collection for researchers working in any area of cognitive science, and one that transitions embodied cognition from its position as a reactionary discipline to a research programme in its own right. I expect this volume will act as a springboard for exciting new directions in teaching and research." - Stefan Linquist, University of Guelph, Canada"This Handbook is a landmark in the embodied cognition field. It stands as a singular introduction to the methods and commitments of embodied cognition across a wide array of topics, with original chapters by some of the most prominent philosophers, psychologists, and neuroscientists at work today." - Elliott Sober, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA"Unparalleled in its accessibility and breadth of coverage, this volume serves as a perfect introduction to embodied cognition while also being enormously useful to experts. It includes cutting-edge ideas, illuminating reviews of standard positions and theoretical controversies, and a plethora of specific applications across the gamut of cognition, though always with an eye on the big picture." - Dan Ryder, University of British Columbia - Okanagan, Canada
