We are very pleased to announce that XPrag.de Mercator Fellow Ira Noveck has published a new book “Experimental Pragmatics: The Making of A Cognitive Science”. According to Ira, the book is designed to introduce Experimental Pragmatics to a wide audience (to anyone curious about pragmatics, i.e. utterance processing, cognition and communication) while also being useful to experts. It’s now been 14 years since Ira’s volume with Dan Sperber kicked off the field of experimental pragmatics as we know it. Much has happened since then, with Ira playing a leading role in these developments. We expect that his new volume will become the bible for the field of experimental pragmatics for many years to come.
