MITHEN, S. J., Thoughtful Foragers. Cambridge University Press, 2009. 304p. Paperback. Series: New Studies in Archaeology. Thoughtful Foragers is about hunter-gatherer decision making. The author explores the implications of the human mind as a product of biological evolution for the way in which humans solve foraging problems. He draws on studies form ethology, psychology and ethnography prior to turning his attention to prehistoric hunter-gatherers. He attempts to construct explanations for patterns in the archaeological record by an explicit focus on decision making by individuals. Thoughtful Foragers will appeal to specialists in European prehistory as well as to those interested in archaeological theory and method. It makes some very significant advances, which will be of real importance for the field of evolutionary theory in relation to human evolution and the evaluation of human social systems.

WARTENBERG, T. E., Thoughtful Images. Illustrating Philosophy Through Art. Oxford University Press, 2023. 328p. Hardback. In this truly groundbreaking endeavor, Wartenberg opens a surprisingly neglected topic to philosophical inquiry. Employing the notion of illustration, Wartenberg eruditely explores the diverse ways in which fine art abets philosophical understanding, including examples of how it can present original philosophical insight. Wartenberg's text is consistently historically informed and generous, contextually illuminating, aesthetically sensitive, and philosophically astute. This pioneering treatise will undoubtedly provide a source for philosophical conversation for years to come.
