About the book
"The Social Mind charts the intellectual history of the idea of socially constructed mind through the examination of four key theorists - Lev Vygotsky, George Herbert Mead, James Mark Baldwin, and Pierre Janet. All four are widely recognized as seminal, early thinkers, yet there is a paucity of contemporary scholarship on the work of Janet and Baldwin, and there is nothing before this book that connects the work of all four. An analysis of the theories of these scholars and the social climate in which they worked will be invaluable to contemporary social scientists." "In their analysis of the social construction of mind, Jaan Valsiner and Rene van der Veer elaborate on their notion of intellectual interdependency in the development of scientific ideas and the role of such interdependency in the history of the social sciences."--Jacket.
