Acts of Meaning: Four Lectures on Mind and Culture
by
Jerome Bruner
About this title: Argues that the idea of the mind as an "information processor" has led psychology away from seeing the mind as a creator of meanings. Only by breaking out of the limitations of a computational model of mind can we grasp the interaction through which mind constitutes and is constituted by culture.

By Barnaby ,
The United States
"This collection of four highly-literate essays by the developmental psychologist Jerome Bruner is a centerpiece of narrative psychology, which uses tools of narrative analysis to examine human cognition in terms of meaning. I have reread this book several times and never fail to take new levels of insight away from it."

"I read this for my BA thesis in social anthro. It was certainly interesting, but not as good as some of the other books on cognition that I've read (like Solsa's)."
