This edited volume seeks to integrate research and scholarship on
the topic of embodiment, with the idea being that thinking and
feeling are often grounded in more concrete representations related
to perception and action. The book centers on psychological
approaches to embodiment and includes chapters speaking to
development as well as clinical issues, though a larger number
focus on topics related to cognition and neuroscience as well as
social and personality psychology. These topical chapters are
linked to theory-based chapters centered on interoception, grounded
cognition, conceptual metaphor, and the extended mind thesis.
Further, a concluding section speaks to critical issues such as
replication concerns, alternative interpretations, and future
directions. The final result is a carefully conceived product that
is a comprehensive and well-integrated volume on the psychology of
embodiment. The primary audience for this book is academic
psychologists from many different areas of psychology (e.g.,
social, developmental, cognitive, clinical). The secondary audience
consists of disciplines in which ideas related to embodied
cognition figure prominently, such as counseling, education,
biology, and philosophy.
