What is Metonymy in Language and Thought (Human Cognitive Processing) about?

This text seeks to open up the study of individual languages to the perspectives of cognitive science, and in doing so bring together the contributions of language scholars, linguists, anthropologists, psychologists and neurophysicians. It attempts to reconcile diversity with universality. This text provides an account of metonymic research. The contributions share the assumption that metonymy is a cognitive phenomenon underlying much of our ordinary conceptualization that may be more fundamental than metaphor.
