Abstract:

Trasmundi combines her background as a cognitive ethnographer with theory of
radical embodied cognition and interaction to investigate how healthcare
practitioners manage cognitive events in patient treatment and diagnosing that
often lead to human errors. This interdisciplinary focus emphasises how
professional action underlines various forms of cognitive and social life that
involves language, tools, organisational procedures, shared expertise,
cultural values and social rules. The book investigates such phenomena which
previously have fallen into the gaps between established disciplines of
interaction analysis and psychology. In arguing that the multi-scalar
constraints of professional action are still underexplored in a naturalistic
setting of emergency medicine, Trasmundi uses tools such as multimodal
interaction analysis and cognitive event analysis to investigate the cultural
and distributed nature of cognition. The book provides the reader with a new
take on this heavily investigated topic, both theoretically and
methodologically by describing how medical culture affects real-time
interaction and how culture itself is shaped by the exact same dynamics.
