The Neuroscience of Language: On Brain Circuits of Words and Serial Order by Friedemann Pulvermüller
Requirements: Any PDF Reader, 3.9 MB
Overview: The Neuroscience of Language puts forth the first systematic model of language to bridge the gap between linguistics and neuroscience. Neuronal models of word and serial order processing are presented in the form of a computational, connectionist neural network. The linguistic emphasis is on words and elementary syntactic rules.

The essence of the work is contained in chapters on neural algorithms and networks, basic syntax, serial order mechanisms, and neuronal grammar. Throughout, exercises illustrate the functioning of brain models of language.

How is language organized in the human brain? This book puts forth the first systematic model of language to bridge the gap between linguistics and neuroscience. Introductory chapters focus on neuronal structure and function, cognitive brain processes, the basics of classical aphasia research and modern neuroimaging of language, neural network approaches to language, and the basics of syntactic theories. Also included are chapters on neural algorithms and networks, basic syntax, serial order mechanisms, and neuronal grammar. Excursuses illustrate the functioning of brain models of language, and a web site with animations is available.
