In this new volume, leading researchers provide state-of-the-art
perspectives on how social interaction influences the development
of knowledge. The book integrates approaches from a variety of
disciplines including developmental psychology, psychopathology,
philosophy, anthropology, sociology, evolutionary biology, and
primatology. It reviews the nature and type of interactions that
promote development as well as the conceptual frameworks used to
explain the relation between individuals and groups. Social Life
and Social Knowledge comprehensively addresses conceptual questions
central to understanding human life and development: Is the human
form of social life reducible to biological processes? What
psychological abilities constitute the specifically human form of
social life? What are the processes and contexts within which these
abilities develop? How should we conceptualize the links between
social life and the development of thought, and how do individuals
and society contribute to these processes? The book is intended for
philosophers, primatologists, anthropologists, biologists,
sociologists, and developmental and educational psychologists
interested in social development, social cognition, and
developmental psychopathology. It also serves as a resource for
courses in social development and those that focus on the
intersection between cognition, development, and culture.
