Embodied mind theorists, like Lakoff and Johnson, use Frege as their favourite punching bag. They say his rather formalist account of meaning implies a rather abstract (and cognitively unrealistic, as they put it) view of mind. But I see his work here as being potentially complementary to their project. Their own embodied view couldn't account for objective truth very well. Frege's does.
