In this interdisciplinary collection of lectures, Chris Sinha
presents an overview of topics ranging from language in children's
play, through cultural conceptualizations of time, to philosophical
and linguistic relativism. The intertwining of the evolutionary and
individual time scales of human development is a key theme unifying
the lectures, as is the fundamentally cultural nature of language
and cognition. Familiar topics in cognitive linguistics, such as
spatial semantics and conceptual blending, are addressed from these
cultural, comparative and developmental perspectives. Chris Sinha
also discusses the psychological roots of key concepts in cognitive
linguistics, and sets out a biocultural approach to language
evolution.
