Description
Most psychological work on metaphor focuses on either basic processes or assumed applications. Relatively little has been dedicated to bridging the gap between the two areas. Metaphor: Implications and Applications is an attempt to fill this void. Chapters in this book discuss the pragmatics of metaphor understanding and applications based on research in the areas of clinical interventions and politics, reading, how the blind come to understand their world, and humor. In pulling these views together in one place, the editors hope to provide a perspective that has been up until now "missing in action."
