Jerome Bruner is one of the grand figures of psychology. From his role as a
founder of the cognitive revolution in the 1950s to his recent advocacy of
cultural psychology, Bruner's influence has been dramatic and far-reaching.
Such is the breadth of his vision that Bruner's work has inspired thinkers in
many of the major areas of psychology and has had a powerful impact on
adjacent disciplines. His writings on language acquisition, culture and
education are of profound and enduring importance. Focusing on the dominant
themes of language, culture and self, this volume provides a comprehensive
exploration of Bruner's fertile ideas and a considered appraisal of his
legacy.

With a distinguished list of contributors including Jerome Bruner himself, the
result is an outstanding volume of interest to students and scholars in
psychology, philosophy, cognitive science, anthropology, linguistics, and
education.

Among the contributors are Judy Dunn, Howard Gardner, Clifford Geertz, Rom
Harré, David Olson, Edward Reed, Talbot Taylor, Michael Tomasello, and John
Shotter. The volume is framed by an editorial introduction that considers the
distinctively philosophical dimensions of Bruner's thought, and a final
chapter by Bruner himself in which he re-examines prominent themes in his work
in light of issues raised by the contributors.

The volume will be invaluable to students and researchers in the fields of
psychology, cognitive science, education, and the philosophy of mind.
