[from Gary Cziko 920603.1725]
In a review of two of Jerome Bruner's books in the latest _Educational
Researcher_ (1992, May, _21_(4)), David Olson says:
"Bruner makes a strong case for the mind as the proper object of
psychology. He is quite right to warn us of the move to identify the mind
with the brain and the tendency to blur the distinction by talk of the
_mind/brain_. But the relation between the causal brain and the
intentional mind remains almost as puzzling to us as it was to Descartes.
And the relation between the personal and the social, despite Bruner's
efforts, remains puzzling." (p. 31).
Sort of makes you feel privileged to know about PCT, doesn't it?--Gary
