Summary:The need to understand human social life is basic to our human nature and fuels a life-long quest that we begin in early childhood. Key to this quest is trying to fathom our inner mental states-our hopes, plans, wants, thoughts, and emotions. Scientists deem this developing a 'theory of mind.' In 'Reading Minds', Henry Wellman tells the story of our journey into that understanding.
Target Audience:Specialized.
