Contents:
Introducing embodied grounding -- Embodied language and concepts / L. Barsalou -- Grounding symbolic operations in the brain's modal systems / A. Glenberg -- Toward the integration of bodily states, language, and action / F. Pulvermüller -- Brain embodiment of category-specific semantic memory circuits / L. Boroditsky and J. Prinz -- What thoughts are made of -- Embodiment of social cognition and relationships / G.R. Semin & J.T. Cacioppo -- Grounding social cognition : synchronization, coordination, and co-regulation / E. R. Smith -- An embodied account of self-other "overlap" and its effects / T. Schubert, S. Waldzus, S. & B. Seibt -- The embodiment of power and communalism in space and bodily contact / P. Briñol & R.E. Petty -- Embodied persuasion : fundamental processes by which bodily responses can impact attitudes -- Embodiment and affect / G. Clore & Schnall, S. -- Affect as embodied evidence in attitude, advertising, and art / L. Feldman Barrett. & K. Lindquist -- The embodiment of emotion / P. Winkielman, P.M. Niedenthal & L. Oberman -- The embodied emotional mind / J. Förster & R S. Friedman -- Expression entails anticipation : toward a self-regulatory model of bodily feedback effects.
Summary: In recent years there has been an increasing awareness that a comprehensive understanding of language, cognitive and affective processes, and social and interpersonal phenomena cannot be achieved without understanding the ways these processes are grounded in bodily states. The term 'embodiment' captures the common denominator of these developments, which come from several disciplinary perspectives ranging from neuroscience, cognitive science, social psychology, and affective sciences. For the first time, this volume brings together these varied developments under one umbrella and furnishes a comprehensive overview of this intellectual movement in the cognitive-behavioral sciences. The chapters review current work on relations of the body to thought, language use, emotion and social relationships as presented by internationally recognized experts in these areas.
