This book assesses current assumptions about how language is acquired, remembered and retained as
impulses in the brain, from the perspective of neurolinguistics, which is based on neuroanatomy and
neurophysiology.
Fred
С. С
Peng argues that language is behaviour which has evolved in human genetics through
time. Like all behaviours, language utilizes many body parts which are controlled by the cortical and
subcortical
structures of the brain. Language in the brain is memory-governed, meaning-centred and
multifaceted. This view is a challenge to conventional
neuroscience,
which sees language and speech
as separate entities; such a convention is not consistent with how the brain functions.
Dr
Peng s study
of language in the brain has wide-reaching implications for the study of language disorders,
neurolinguistics, and psycholinguistics in dealing with dementia, aphasia and schizophrenia.
This cutting-edge research monograph presents challenging new insights in the field of
neuroscience
to a linguistic audience and will also benefit neuroscientists. It will be essential reading for academics
researching any aspect of language and the brain.
Fred
С. С
Peng is a behavioural neuroscientist at the Department of Neurosurgcry and the Neurological
Institute at the Taipei Veterans General Hospital,Taiwan. As an anthropologist specializing in linguistics,
he did post-doctoral work in the basic sciences and medical sciences.
