Review: 行文が完結で、例も多くてわかりやすいです。ただし、欧米系のメタファーは、アジア系の私たちに、ピンと来ない時も。全体的によかったです。
Review: A very interesting read. That said, the book is written in an academic style and, while there's nothing wrong with that per se, it's probably not what you're looking for if you're after a treatment of this topic written in an accessible and easy to read style for the layperson. (In fact, much of the content in several of the chapters is taken from an article published by the authors in the Journal of Philosophy and retains that style of writing.)

It will give new insight about how we are thinking, and influence of metaphor in profound meaning making. ❤❤
