It's high time: Cognitive neuroscience lives.

Neuroconstructivism (Mareschal et a!. 2007a) heralds a departure from the standard "associationism" that has dominated the English speaking cognitive and neuroscience community for generations. Its central concept is context dependency: encellment, embrainment, embodiment and ensocioment. This reviewer welcomes the breath of fresh air in overcoming the "deconstructions" of postmodernism. The program is carried out with a carefully selected sample of empirical evidence with an emphasis on development. This review points to some of tile books' strengths and shortcomings, and adds a few observations that early tile program further. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
