Cognition in practice : mind, mathematics, and culture in everyday life
TL;DR: In this paper, Lave moves the analysis of one particular form of cognitive activity, arithmetic problem-solving, out of the laboratory into the domain of everyday life, and shows how mathematics in the real world, like all thinking, is shaped by the dynamic encounter between the culturally endowed mind and its total context, a subtle interaction that shapes both tile human subject and the world within which it acts.
