I recently read two books by them: &lt;i&gt;Metaphors We Live By&lt;/i&gt; (see Peter Norvig&amp;#x27;s description here[1]), and &lt;i&gt;Philosophy In The Flesh&lt;/i&gt;[2] and found the ideas in them on how humans use metaphors to make sese of things very interesting and intuitive. It actually left me wondering when and how AI would use these insights.&lt;p&gt;[0] &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conceptual_metaphor&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;Conceptual_metaphor&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;[1] &lt;a href=&quot;http://norvig.com/mwlb.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;norvig.com&amp;#x2F;mwlb.html&lt;/a&gt; - because it stays focused on language it manages to make a clear and convincing case&lt;p&gt;[2] &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nytimes.com/books/first/l/lakoff-philosophy.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.nytimes.com&amp;#x2F;books&amp;#x2F;first&amp;#x2F;l&amp;#x2F;lakoff-philosophy.html&lt;/a&gt; - by comparison a flawed but nonetheless good read.
