Reviews

'Against Theory of Mind is an essential remedy to the unquestioning approach of most books in the literature and as such is an essential read both for those who have maintained suspicion of the ToM literature over the years and for those who desire a heretic against which to test their faith...The arguments made have important implications for many areas of psychological research.' - Eric P. Charles, Contemporary Psychology (American Psychological Association) 'This book is worth paying attention to...It goes against mainstream contemporary philosophy of mind and psychology... and sheds light on hidden assumptions almost universally accepted by ToM, showing that these assumptions are not adequately reflected...[T]he manner in which they handle the seemingly unshakeable pillars on which ToM stands, seems to be admirable.' - Czech Sociological Review
