Rezensionen

"The book's concepts of memory, perception, language and attention are permeated by an anthropological assessment that brings the main added value to the reading. ... a truly useful tool to those who have as their field of study, psychology, philosophy, anthropology, advertising, management and political science. All will be able to find original and thought-provoking ideas, structured in short sections that prove to be more substantial than it seems at first sight." (Diana Soeiro, metapsychology online reviews, metapsychology.mentalhelp.net, Vol. 21 (4), January, 2017)
