Acts of Meaning : Four Lectures on Mind and Culture (Jerusalem-Harvard Lectures)

Harvard University Press, Cambridge, MA, (July 1990)

Abstract

Jerome Bruner argues that the cognitive revolution, with its current fixation on mind as "information processor;" has led psychology away from the deeper objective of understanding mind as a creator of meanings. Only by breaking out of the limitations imposed by a computational model of mind can we grasp the special interaction through which mind both constitutes and is constituted by culture.
