Finished Chapter 15: The Coherent Structuring of Experience.
Had some interesting points about the means of our conceptualizing our experiences by picking out what is important so we can categorize the experience and there by understand and remember it. Also the difference between metaphorical structuring vs. subcategorization and how some things are more difficult to define and subjective than others.

Turns out this book is far less engaging than I thought. Gonna keep track of my progress chapter by chapter, to motivate me to finish it.
