Presents an historical overview of the way that ideas about language and thinking have developed from the early days of cognitive psychology to the present. Emphasizes psychological theories and findings, but also considers related work in artificial intelligence, linguistics and philosophy. Develops an integrated model by exploring specific themes: the relationship between language and thinking, inductive vs. deductive inferences, conscious vs. unconscious processes, and general purpose vs. domain specific processes.
