History is a potential tool for cognitive scientists interested in metacognitive categories like "creativity" and "innovation." As a way of thinking, history suggests alternative accounts of the development of innovation and growth, for example. Life History Theory is one such account, but its roots in the Industrial Revolution make it a problematic tool for telling the history of that period.
历史是认知科学家感兴趣的元认知范畴(如“创造力”和“创新”)的潜在工具。例如,作为一种思维方式,历史提供了创新和增长发展的替代解释。生活史理论就是这样一种解释,但它的根源在于工业革命,使其成为讲述该时期历史的一个有问题的工具。
