How do we, as interpreters and theorists in the human and social sciences, understand agency? What are the methods, models, and mediating theoretical frameworks that allow us to give a reliable and adequate account of beliefs, actions, and cultural practices? More specifically, how can we as interpretive analysts employ our own cognitive capacities
This book provides a solid foundation of the fundamental issues in social and cognitive science. It offers new insights into two competing approaches to the understanding of human conduct—the 'theory' theory and the 'simulation' theory.
