2008 Wallace Foundation Distinguished Lecture—The Centrality of Culture to the Scientific Study of Learning and Development: How an Ecological Framework in Education Research Facilitates Civic Responsibility (2008, background): “Rather, even the physiological development of the brain—in both evolutionary and ontogenetic or life-course time—is influenced by culture; and at the same time, our capacities as cultural beings are made possible by human physiology (Donald, 2001; Li, 2006; Plotkin, 2001).”
The musical art of infant conversation: Narrating in the time of sympathetic experience, without rational interpretation, before words (2008, background): “Human minds act, think and communicate by fabricating, in the actions of their bodies, mimetic stories or parables beyond present needs and circumstances (Donald, 2001; Donaldson, 1992; Turner, 1996).”
Cross-modal iconicity: A cognitive semiotic approach to sound symbolism (2010, background): “…of sign nevertheless retains a crucial place, and the question of how the capacity to use signs emerged in evolution, and develops in ontogeny is of vital importance (Donald 1991, 2001; Mandler 1996; Deacon 1997; Tomasello 1999, 2008; DeLoache 2004; Sonesson 2007, 2009a; Zlatev 2007, 2008, 2009).”

Language as a Tool for Interacting Minds (2010, background): “Finally, the introduction of language (from an onto- and phylogenetic perspective) even makes possible new social communicative practices such as narrative (Donald, 2001).”
FUNDAMENTAL ISSUES IN THE EVOLUTIONARY PSYCHOLOGY OF MUSIC: Assessing Innateness and Domain Specificity (2005, background): “The explosion of industry, technology, and widespread literacy of the last dozen human generations attests to the power of our species to alter itself via cultural transmission on a time scale that is virtually insignificant from the perspective of natural selection (also see Tomasello, 1999; Ehrlic”
