The study of language becomes particularly attractive when it is
not practised as an isolated descriptive enterprise, but when it
has wide-ranging implications for the study of the human mind. Such
is the spirit of this book. While categorisation may be the single
most basic cognitive process in organisms, and as an area of
inquiry, it is fundamental to Cognitive Science as a whole, at the
other end of the spectrum, high-level cognition is organised and
permeated by language, giving rise to categories that count and
function as concepts. Working from considering the philosophical
assumptions of the cognitivist perspective, this study offers an
argument for a very productive understanding of the relation
between concepts, categories, and their theoretical models.
