First sentence: To borrow an image from James Greeno, contrary to the symbol of Auguste Rodin's "The Thinker," in which thought, if not learning, is symbolized as an isolated, internalized, and perhaps even painful event, the general goal of this book is to set aside this commonsense view and look at what people really do in their everyday lives.
