Description - Mind, Brain, and Language by Marie T. Banich
This is a one volume overview of how the structure of language influences the way we think and how the organization of the brain influences language. The contributors examine these issues from a variety of distinct disciplinary vantage points ranging from linguistics and philosophy to psychology and neuroscience. The impetus for such an interdisciplinary work comes from the editors' belief that major insights in science result from interaction and cross-fertilization between the discrete conceptualizations and approaches that occur within individual disciplines. This volume is designed to provide an entry point for individuals who are interested in an interdisciplinary approach to issues related to mind, brain and language. Each chapter is written to be comprehensible not only to a specialist within a particular field of inquiry, but also to the generally educated reader as well. Instructors should find the text appropriate as core class material for upper-level interdisciplinary courses in psycholinguistics, cognitive neuroscience, and speech and hearing.
