Does Pinker mention Lakoff and Johnson ?
They have a left /right binary suggestion for metaphorical thinking that's similar , ( maybe it's just Lakoff ).


Yeah he does mention Lakoff, but they diverge a lot on the subject of the metaphorical basis of language and thought. They had a bit of a blazing row about it online.




I was only aware of the fall out from a review of "On Freedom" (right title ?), not the online stuff . The metaphorical thinking was good fun , worth a chapter or two dunno about a book .
