Opis

This volume shows how individuals overcome their biological, neural, and mental finitude to achieve sociality. It reveals how we take each other into account, coordinate our actions, and share our inner states through communication. It will be of interest to social psychologists, and those working in cognition, neuroscience, and sociology.
