  We provide an overview of the results we have attained in the last decade on
the identification of quantum structures in cognition and, more specifically,
in the formalization and representation of natural concepts. We firstly discuss
the quantum foundational reasons that led us to investigate the mechanisms of
formation and combination of concepts in human reasoning, starting from the
empirically observed deviations from classical logical and probabilistic
structures. We then develop our quantum-theoretic perspective in Fock space
which allows successful modeling of various sets of cognitive experiments
collected by different scientists, including ourselves. In addition, we
formulate a unified explanatory hypothesis for the presence of quantum
structures in cognitive processes, and discuss our recent discovery of further
quantum aspects in concept combinations, namely, 'entanglement' and
'indistinguishability'. We finally illustrate perspectives for future research.
