Title: Mind and social practice
Description: Mind and Social Practice brings together published and unpublished work from Sylvia Scribner's productive and wide-ranging career. The book includes a general introduction and five section introductions by the editors, placing Scribner's work within the framework of her life, her commitments, and the political and intellectual events of the times. Arranged chronologically, the volume illustrates how Scribner's work continually built upon and advanced earlier insights and explorations.

Her later, more theoretically rich writing is enhanced by an appreciation of her earlier work. The book ends with a chronology of her life and a complete bibliography of her work.

. Because Scribner's work was wide-ranging, Mind and Social Practice will have wide appeal - in psychology, anthropology, education, labor studies, cognitive science, literary, African studies, and the history of science. Further, since the volume places her work in the narrative context of her life, her political commitments, and her influence on others, it will also engage feminist scholars and historians of ideas.
