Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0262610760, Paperback)

In Concepts, Kinds, and Cognitive Development, Frank Keil develops a coherent account of how concepts and word meanings develop in children, adding to our understanding of the representational nature of concepts and word meanings at all ages. Weaving together issues in cognitive development, philosophy, and cognitive psychology, Keil reconciles numerous theories, backed by empirical evidence from nominal-kinds studies, natural-kinds studies, and studies of fundamental categorical distinctions.

Frank Keil is Professor of Psychology at Cornell University and Co-Director of the Cognitive Studies Program at Cornell.
