From the Back Cover

The first volume of the two-volume set Body, Language and Mind focuses on the concept of embodiment, understood in most general terms as "the bodily basis of phenomena such as meaning, mind, cognition and language". The volume offers a representative, multi- and interdisciplinary state-of-the-art collection of papers on embodiment. Several aspects of cognition and language are illuminated, such as phenomenal experience, perception, action, conceptualization, communication, meaning creation, social interaction and culture. An introductory essay identifies the different strands of research, the central issues that they share, and the synergies that can be gained from addressing embodiment from an interdisciplinary perspective.
