Praise:
"The Continuity of Mind is a compelling introduction to the dynamical systems approach to cognition that provides the most readable treatment of this work I have seen. Whether you agree that dynamical systems are the future of cognitive science or not, you cannot ignore the arguments that Spivey puts forward in this book."
--Arthur B. Markman, Professor of Psychology and Marketing, U. of Texas
Not so much:
"I have never understood why dynamic systems researchers choose to enshroud their good ideas in a mumbo-jumbo futuristic language that seems as if it came out of a bad Star Wars movie. . . I know dynamical systems types sometimes wonder why their approach has not caught on more fully with mainstream cognitive psychologists. They need only look in the mirror (or read their own papers) to know why." -- anonymous reviewer for closely-related journal article
