Neurolinguistics is a highly interdisciplinary field, drawing on linguistics, psychology, neurology, and cognitive neuroscience. Neurolinguistics, like psycholinguistics, covers aspects of language processing; but unlike psycholinguistics, it draws on data from patients with damage to language processing capacities, or the use of modern neuroimaging technologies such as fMRI, TMS, or both. The burgeoning interest in neurolinguistics reflects the fact that anunderstanding of the neural bases of this data can inform more biologically plausible models of the human capacity for language.

Produktbeschreibung
Neurolinguistics is a highly interdisciplinary field, drawing on linguistics, psychology, neurology, and cognitive neuroscience. Neurolinguistics, like psycholinguistics, covers aspects of language processing; but unlike psycholinguistics, it draws on data from patients with damage to language processing capacities, or the use of modern neuroimaging technologies such as fMRI, TMS, or both. The burgeoning interest in neurolinguistics reflects the fact that anunderstanding of the neural bases of this data can inform more biologically plausible models of the human capacity for language. The Oxford Handbook of Neurolinguistics provides concise overviews of this rapidly-growing field, and engages an audience with an interest in the neurobiology oflanguage.
Autorenporträt
Greig I. de Zubicaray is Professor and Assistant Dean of Research in the Faculty of Health at Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Australia. His research covers brain mechanisms involved in language and memory and their disorders, neuroimaging methodologies, the ageing brain and cognitive decline, and most recently, the emerging field of imaging genetics. Niels O. Schiller is Professor of Psycho- and Neurolinguistics and Academic Director of the Leiden University Centre for Linguistics (LUCL). His research interests include syntactic, morphological, and phonological processes in language production and reading aloud, as well as articulatory-motor processes during speech production, language processing in neurologically impaired patients, and forensic phonetics.
