| Synopsis: |
What is language? Can we distinguish language from general cognition? Is language an isolable, biologically coherent system? Does the linguistic description of language as an autonomous system, formed from a combination of more-or-less autonomous subsystems, correspond to psychological and neurophysiological fact? This collection of original contributions, drawn from a Neurosciences Research Program Work Session, provides a comprehensive and thoroughly up-to-date discussion of the research, knowledge, and debates in the neurobiology of language.Michael Studdert-Kennedy is Professor in the Department of Communication at Queens College (CUNY) and is on the research staff at the Haskins Laboratories.This book inaugurates a new series in Neuropsychology and Neurolinguistics, edited by David Caplan. |
