  abstract =     "In a thorough comparative awareness essay enlivened by
                 dry humor and examples drawn from her own career as an
                 applied anthropologist at Apple Computer, Nardi
                 describes the strengths and weaknesses of four theories
                 of consciousness and human cognition: neuroscience,
                 cognitive science, distributed cognition theory, and
                 (her own preference) activity theory. This is a
                 perceptive introductory tour of a very diverse
                 literature, but it also frequently touches on concrete
                 issues in human-computer interaction: ``If you design
                 mediating tools for others (such as computer hardware
                 or software),'' notes Nardi for example, ``you are also
                 responsible, in part, for the consciousness of others''
                 according to activity theory.",
