As cognitive scientists continue to probe into the nature of the
human mind, it is increasingly clear that research into cognition
cannot be dissociated from the context in which our mental activity
occurs. The papers collected in this book testify to the growing
interest in adopting a broad characterisation of what counts as
relevant context. The vices of seeking essences behind complex
phenomena should not go unnoticed, the primary, and possibly the
most crucial, downside of this approach being a reductionist
treatment of the human mind. With this book, the authors want to
show that humans are not merely brains, minds, speakers, learners,
readers, etc., but, first and foremost, complex beings who
communicate within and beyond the contexts of their own cultures.
