Adult humans have impressive pieces of cognitive equipment, but in Cecilia Heyes´s view these cognitive gadgets are not programmed in the genes. They are constructed over the course of childhood through social interaction. From birth, our malleable minds learn from our culture-soaked human environment not only what to think but how to think it.
