Cambridge University Press themeaningofthings
Book SynopsisThe meaning of things is a study of the significance of material possessions in contemporary urban life, and of the ways people carve meaning out of their domestic environment. Drawing on a survey of eighty families in Chicago who were interviewed on the subject of their feelings about common household objects, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi and Eugene Rochberg-Halton provide a unique perspective on materialism, American culture, and the self. They begin by reviewing what social scientists and philosophers have said about the transactions between people and things. In the model of 'personhood' that the authors develop, goal-directed action and the cultivation of meaning through signs assume central importance. They then relate theoretical issues to the results of their survey. An important finding is the distinction between objects valued for action and those valued for contemplation. The authors compare families who have warm emotional attachments to their homes with those in which a common Table of ContentsPreface; Part I: 1. People and things; 2.

Cambridge University Press Learning How to Learn

Anyone improving education will find this useful.Trade Review"...a valuable resource for educators and researchers who wish to make learning more meaningful and research more productive."
