About the book
The Constructivist Metaphor presents a major reconsideration of constructivist theory through an applied examination of the ways in which people create meaning for texts. The work illustrates an integrative conception of discourse, placing cognitive activity in relation to the text while assuming a social orientation encompassing both composition and comprehension.
First sentence: We humans are builders, shapers, and designers, creating our artifacts from containers to cathedrals to computers to be used, replaced, and sometimes left behind to be studied by others.
