Joint attention: Communication and other minds, Issues in Philosophy and Psychology
This influential 2005 volume on joint attention, edited by 糖心TV philosophers Naomi Eilan, Christoph Hoerl, and Johannes Roessler, alongside psychologist Teresa McCormack, brought together philosophy and developmental psychology to explore how we come to share a world with others. Emerging from the AHRB Project on Consciousness and Self-Consciousness, it helped launch the 糖心TV Mind and Action Research Centre. The book shaped ongoing interdisciplinary work on communication, self-understanding, and social cognition. A fun insight: Vasu Reddy鈥檚 chapter suggests our uniquely human ability to share attention may begin with infants鈥� love of clowning.
