Location: Street: 77 Main St Additional: City: Montpelier, Province: Vermont Postal Code: 05602 Country: United States (added from IndieBound)Steven Pinker Steven Pinker Steven Pinker discusses The Stuff of Thought. One of the world's leading cognitive scientists, Steven Pinker asks audacious questions about the human mind... then boldly sets out to answer them. Recently named one of TIME magazine's 100 Most Influential People in The World, he is enormously popular in the media and highly respected in scientific circles. Known for his verve, his wit, and his profound ideas -- many of them explained by referencing pop culture -- Pinker is a brilliant speaker who helps non-specialists understand the science behind human thought and action. His latest book, The Stuff of Thought, shows how our words reflect the thoughts we think, the emotions we feel, and the relationship we hold.

Title: The Stuff of
Thought: Language as a Window Into Human Nature, $16.00 Softcover, ISBN
9780143114246, On Sale Date: September 01, 2008.
The Stuff of Thought
marries the two topics of Steven Pinker’s earlier Bestsellers: language (The
Language Instinct, Words and Rules) and human nature (How the Mind
Works, The Blank Slate). It presents entirely new material,
while written in the style that made those books famous: lucid explanations of
deep and powerful ideas, presented with irreverent wit, elegant style, and a
deft use of examples from popular culture and everyday life. It is a
brilliantly crafted and highly readable work that will appeal to readers of
everything from The Selfish Gene and Blink to Eat, Shoots &
Leaves.
Steven Pinker, a Harvard
professor and one of TIME magazine’s “100 Most Influential People in the
World Today,” sealed his reputation as a great explainer when he was asked on
“The Colbert Report” to explain how the brain works in five words or less —and
did it.* Now, in his latest New York Times Bestseller, the two-time
finalist for the Pulitzer Prize shows off this gift again in a book that
explains the mysteries of human nature in a completely new way—by exploring how
we use words. *Brain cells fire in patterns.
