The Recursive Mind
The Origins of Human Language,
Thought, and Civilization
Michael C. Corballis
The R/curstve Mind challenges the commonly
held notion that language is what makes us
uniquely human. In this compelling book,
Michael Corballis argues that what distin¬
guishes us in the animal kingdom is our
capacity for recursion: the ability to embed
our thoughts within other thoughts. I
think, therefore
1
am,
is an example of
recursive thought, because the thinker has
inserted hiinselt into his thought. Recursion
enables us to conceive of our own minds
and the minds
oí
others. It also gives us the
power or mental time travel
—
the ability
to insert past experiences, or imagined
future ones, into present consciousness.
Drawing on
neuroscience,
psychology,
animal behavior, anthropology, and archae¬
ology, Corballis demonstrates how these
recursive structures led to the emergence of
language and speech, which ultimately
enabled us to share our thoughts, plan with
others, and reshape our environment to
better reflect our creative imaginations. He
shows how the recursive mind was critical
to survival in the harsh conditions of the
Pleistocene epoch, and how it evolved to
foster
soci.»]
cohesion. He traces how lan¬
guage
uselt
adapted to recursive thinking.
first through
manual
gestures, then later,
with the emergence of Home sapiens, vocally.
Toolmaking and manufacture arose, and
the applicadon of recursive principles to
these activities in turn led to the complexi¬
ties of human civilization, the extinction
of fellow large-brained hominms like the
Neandertals, and our species supremacy
over the physical world.
Michael C. Corballis is professor emeritus
ôf
psychology at the University of Auckland in
New Zealand. His books include From Hand to
Month: The Origins of Language (Princeton).
