Language, Cognition, and the Brain

Autor Karen Emmorey
en Limba Engleză Hardback – noi 2001
Once signed languages are recognized as natural human languages, a world of exploration opens up. Signed languages provide a powerful tool for investigating the nature of human language and language processing, the relations between cognition and language, and the neural organization for language.

Recenzii

"Written for the general reader with an interest in any of the main topics covered, the book provides introductory linguistic background via a detailed description of American Sign Language and an account of the recent emergence of a new sign language in Nicaragua; myths regarding sign language are debunked; and the demographics and culture of American Sign Language users are outlined."

"This book would be of interest to anyone who wants to understand more about human languages and how the brain processes those languages, although knowledge of ASL and linguistics (especially phonology and morphology) would be helpful. As a second language learner and educator who has spent over 25 years challenged by the nuances and intricacies of ASL, I can honestly say I was fascinated with this book. Some parts were a succinct review of what we already know, some parts presented cutting-edge information, and some parts were quite challenging. Ultimately, however, the book made me think about what I already know and encouraged me to continue exploring how the brain processes language."
