In this week's Five Good Questions, we're interviewing Barbara Tversky about her book Mind in Motion.

Barbara Tversky has three degrees in cognitive psychology at the University of Michigan. She moved to Israel with Israeli husband, learned the language & culture, taught, fought wars, and had 3 kids. Then she was on to Stanford to research memory, categorization, spatial thinking & language, design, diagrams, event cognition. Her kids grew up, her husband died, and she moved to Columbia Teachers College, adding research on gesture, art, creativity, and joint action.

Five Good Questions: 1. What are mirror neurons and how do they unite seeing and doing? 2. How do we use spatial reasoning to navigate the world? 3. What is the first law of cognition and what are some examples to help us understand? 4. What makes maps so miraculous? 5. How can insights of your research help investors and professional decision-makers be more effective?
