This book proposes a series of interconnected arguments against the
view that interpersonal understanding involves the use of a 'folk'
or 'commonsense' psychology. Ratcliffe suggests that folk
psychology, construed as the attribution of internal mental states
in order to predict and explain behaviour, is a theoretically
motivated and misleading abstraction from social life. He draws on
phenomenology, neuroscience and developmental psychology to offer
an alternative account that emphasizes patterned interactions
between people in shared social situations.
