About this product
Product Information
"The authors restore metaphor to our lives by showing us that it's never gone away. We've merely been taught to talk as if it had: as though weather maps were more 'real' than the breath of autumn; as though, for that matter, Reason was really 'cool.' What we're saying whenever we say is a theme this book illumines for anyone attentive." - Hugh Kenner, Johns Hopkins University "In this bold and powerful book, Lakoff and Turner continue their use of metaphor to show how our minds get hold of the world. They have achieved nothing less than a postmodern Understanding Poetry, a new way of reading and teaching that makes poetry again important." - Norman Holland, University of Florida

Seller was away so I had to keep book in my wishlist. The day seller came back I purchased item. Seller immediately canceled and refunded as they "don’t have access to my inventory". I messaged back saying that I would still like to purchase and that I could wait until they have access again. No response. Disappointed and won't be returning to seller. Guess this is why Amazon is a thing...
