Abstract

Neuroscience is progressing so rapidly that even expressions such as 'by leaps and bounds' fail to capture the pace of its growth. Questions that once were thought to be unanswerable - perhaps even unaskable - have been both asked and answered, and questions once unthinkable, are routine. Topics in Integrative Neuroscience has singled out four of the most important problems in neuroscience: higher order perception; language; memory systems; and sensory processes. The volume presents original contributions by many of the leading researchers in those fields, and with an initial chapter covering neuroethics. It is impossible to capture fully the sweep of discoveries that emerged from the 'Decade of the Brain' within the covers of a single volume. It is possible, however, to provide a sample, both in recognition of what has been accomplished and as a harbinger of what is surely to come.

Abstract

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. Divided into five sections, section one discusses methods and techniques inc

Abstract

Das Lesen gehört zu den wichtigsten Kulturtechniken des Menschen und hat wesentlich zur kulturellen und gesellschaftlichen Entwicklung beigetragen. Lesen. Ein interdisziplinäres Handbuch nähert sich dem komplexen Phänomen aus unterschiedlichen Analyseperspektiven. Neurobiologie, Kognitionspsychologie, Sprachpsychologie und Linguistik erforschen die Voraussetzungen und Grundlagen des Lesens als Verstehensprozess und Sprachverarbeitung. Die medientechnische Perspektive und die Semiotik beschreiben die unterschiedlichen Lesemedien von der Antike bis zur Gegenwart als Übertragungskanäle und Anordnungen von Schrift- und Bildzeichen (Typographie), die Informationen über Zeit und Raum bereitstellen. Organisationen und Institutionen wirken auf Lesen als soziales Handeln in der Gesellschaft ein. Thematisiert werden Lesen in sozialen Beziehungen, Maßnahmen der Leseförderung und Bereitstellorganisationen wie Buchhandel und Bibliothek. Die handlungstheoretische Perspektive schließlich geht von den Funktionen und Leistungen der unterschiedlichen Lesemedien aus und betrachtet Mediennutzung und Lesen als soziales Handeln des Einzelnen und in der Gesellschaft. Dies wird in historischer Perspektive vertieft und Lesestoffe, Leseverhalten und Lesefunktionen von der Antike bis in die Gegenwart beleuchtet.Das vorliegende Standardwerk zeichnet sich durch einen strikt interdisziplinären Zugang aus. Zahlreiche namhafte Wissenschaftler haben dazu beigetragen, dass die neueren Forschungsergebnisse fundiert, gut lesbar und übergreifend dargestellt werden. Our society, focused on media, communication, and knowledge, has been paying more and more attention to topics such as reading, reading comprehension, and reading competency. Ever since the PISA study in 2000, these issues have been the focus of both political and popular discussion. This handbook is based on the latest research findings in neurophysiology, psycholinguistics, education, sociological communications theory, and book studies.

Abstract

"Linguistics, neurocognition, and phenomenological psychology are fundamentally different fields of research. Helmut Schnelle provides an interdisciplinary understanding of a new integrated field in which linguists can be competent in neurocognition and neuroscientists in structure linguistics. Consequently the first part of the book is a systematic introduction to the function of the form and meaning-organising brain component - with the essential core elements being perceptions, actions, attention, emotion and feeling. Their descriptions provide foundations for experiences based on semantics and pragmatics. The second part is addressed to non-linguists and presents the structural foundations of currently established linguistic frameworks. This book should be serious reading for anyone interested in a comprehensive understanding of language, in which evolution, functional organisation and hierarchies are explained by reference to brain architecture and dynamics"--Provided by publisher.

Abstract

These papers emphasize the development of detailed models of normal cognitive functioning through the analysis of cognitive impairment. They differ, however, in terms of the cognitive domain investigated and the dominant methodology of the reported research. Areas examined include imagery, attention, memory, and language. A substantial portion of the papers presented address language processing because research on language disorders has been a major focus of interest in cognitive neuropsychological research.
