在过去的十年里,语言神经科学作为一个领域已经成熟。十年前,神经影像学只是为了解决神经语言学问题而进行的探索,而今天,它已经成为一个常规组成部分。与此同时,语言学和心理学理论也取得了重大进展,这些理论与语言的神经科学有关。这本书将这些进步整合成一个单一的参考。《语言神经科学手册》提供了这一领域的全面概述。这本书分为五个部分。第一节讨论的方法和技术,包括临床评估方法,映射人类大脑的方法,以及解释有助于语言理解的神经组织的多层次的理论框架。第二节讨论了影像技术(PET、fMRI、ERPs、语言皮层电刺激、TMS)对语言研究的影响。第三部分讨论了该领域的实验方法,包括阅读以及写作和数字加工中不同语言水平的障碍。此外,这里的章节提出了计算模型,讨论了镜像系统对语言的作用,并涵盖了语言方面的大脑侧化。第四部分着重于语言在特殊人群中,在各种疾病的过程中,并在发展障碍。这本书以语言神经科学中的资源列表和项目和概念的词汇表结束,以帮助新手熟悉该领域。编辑Stemmer & Whitaker准备了这本书,以反映神经语言学的最新发展,将这本书直接带入语言的认知神经科学,并捕捉了过去7年来该领域的发展。历史部分集中于在神经语言学研究,失语症综合征和损伤分析中扮演当前角色的主题。这本书包括一个关于神经成像的部分,以反映过去十年来方法学的巨大变化。实验和临床部分反映了该领域的最新发展。
In the last ten years the neuroscience of language has matured as a field. Ten years ago, neuroimaging was just being explored for neurolinguistic questions, whereas today it constitutes a routine component. At the same time there have been significant developments in linguistic and psychological theory that speak to the neuroscience of language. This book consolidates those advances into a single reference. "The Handbook of the Neuroscience of Language" provides a comprehensive overview of this field. This book is divided into five sections. Section one discusses methods and techniques including clinical assessment approaches, methods of mapping the human brain, and a theoretical framework for interpreting the multiple levels of neural organization that contribute to language comprehension. Section two discusses the impact imaging techniques (PET, fMRI, ERPs, electrical stimulation of language cortex, TMS) have made to language research. Section three discusses experimental approaches to the field, including disorders at different language levels in reading as well as writing and number processing. Additionally, chapters here present computational models, discuss the role of mirror systems for language, and cover brain lateralization with respect to language. Part four focuses on language in special populations, in various disease processes, and in developmental disorders. The book ends with a listing of resources in the neuroscience of language and a glossary of items and concepts to help the novice become acquainted with the field. Editors Stemmer & Whitaker prepared this book to reflect recent developments in neurolinguistics, moving the book squarely into the cognitive neuroscience of language and capturing the developments in the field over the past 7 years. The history section focuses on topics that play a current role in neurolinguistics research, aphasia syndromes, and lesion analysis. This book includes a section on neuroimaging to reflect the dramatic changes in methodology over the past decade. The experimental and clinical section reflects recent developments in the field.
