Great cover design.
In amongst the reams of stating the obvious there were some interesting ideas and some great examples but there were no counter arguments at all. Every study cited was used uncritically.
I would recommend this book to a lay reader, with a caveat to read around the subject a bit.
As an aside could publisher please put more of their output in kindle friendly formats, it makes easier to read.

This book is surprisingly interesting and captivating! It’s broken down into three parts. The parts are: Thinking with our bodies; thinking with our surroundings; and thinking with our relationships. Each part is further divided into interesting and relatable subjects. The Extended Mind offers unique perspectives, well-rounded research, and reliable data. But more than that, the author offers surprising and useful educative tidbits that lead to aha moments! I found myself engrossed in the book and before I knew it had finished a third of the book in just one sitting. This book is equal parts enlightening, thought-provoking and inspirational.

How frustrating is it to be told by all the different sources the things you must do to be successful in life? This book definitely does NOT do that. It instead takes an empathetic approach and gives bite size approaches and allows you to have kindness and patience with yourself when dealing with life. This is so necessary for everyone to read in life. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
