In Cognition and Tool Use, anthropologists Janet and Charles Keller
provide an account of human accomplishment based on ethnographic
study. Blacksmithing - the transformation of glowing iron into
artistic and utilitarian products - is the activity in which they
study situated learning. This domain, permeated by visual imagery
and physical virtuosity rather than verbal logic, appears
antithetical to the usual realms of cognitive study. For this
reason, it provides a new entree to human thought and an empirical
test for an anthropology of knowledge. How does a mind in action
access a stable, "sedimented" body of knowledge and create
something original? What does human tool use say about human
thought? What does someone need to know to successfully produce a
material artifact and how do they gain this understanding? In
addressing these questions, the authors offer an interdisciplinary
perspective on the principled creativity of human behavior. This
book will especially appeal to anthropologists and psychologists
who wish to explore an alternative approach to learning and
cognition.
