商品名:The Geography of Thought: How Asians and Westerners Think Differently...and Why
A “landmark book” (Robert J. Sternberg, president of the American Psychological Association) by one of the worlds preeminent psychologists that proves human behavior is not “hard-wired” but a function of culture.Everyone knows that while different cultures think about the world differently, they use the same equipment for doing their thinking. But what if everyone is wrong・The Geography of Thought documents Richard Nisbetts groundbreaking international research in cultural psychology and shows that people actually think about―and even see―the world differently because of differing ecologies, social structures, philosophies, and educational systems that date back to ancient Greece and China. As a result, East Asian thought is “holistic”―drawn to the perceptual field as a whole and to relations among objects and events within that field. By contrast, Westerners focus on salient objects or people, use attributes to assign them to categories, and apply rules of formal logic to understand their behavior.From feng shui to metaphysics, from comparative linguistics to economic history, a gulf separates the children of Aristotle from the descendants of Confucius. At a moment in history when the need for cross-cultural understanding and collaboration have never been more important, The Geography of Thought offers both a map to that gulf and a blueprint for a bridge that will span it.
