This book provides a comprehensive and concise introduction of experiments on contemporary issues of language processing and the brain. It covers a wide range of neurolinguistic and neuroscience topics, including but not limited to word recognition, reading acquisition and dyslexia (in typically developed children, foreign language learners, and deaf people), comprehension of sentences and fictional narratives, the interplay of language processing/acquisition with other cognitive domains, and aging of language comprehension and Chinese reading.
This book showcases the significance of empirical studies on language and cognitive processing, particularly those emerging from the Taiwan research community, to illuminate the intricate nature of the language faculty enabled by the sophisticated computations of the brain. This book informs readers of crucial issues in the neurolinguistic literature and advances in neuroimaging technology and provides perspectives inspired by evolution and neuroscience.
Professor Denise Wu received doctoral and post-doctoral training from Rice University and the University of Pennsylvania (United States of America) respectively, in the discipline of cognitive neuroscience and neuropsychology, with a focus on neurolinguistics. She is currently a professor at the Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience in National Central University in Taiwan and has been serving as the director of the Joint Research Centre for Language and Human Complexity at the University System of Taiwan since 2014. Professor Wu has extensive expertise in employing converging methods, including behavioral, neuropsychological (patient-based), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and neurophysiological (event-related potential and magnetoencephalography) experiments, to elucidate the neuronal mechanisms underlying human cognition in general and linguistic faculties in specific.

Systemvoraussetzungen:
Das Dateiformat PDF zeigt auf jeder Hardware eine Buchseite stets identisch an. Daher ist eine PDF auch für ein komplexes Layout geeignet, wie es bei Lehr- und Fachbüchern verwendet wird (Bilder, Tabellen, Spalten, Fußnoten). Bei kleinen Displays von E-Readern oder Smartphones sind PDF leider eher nervig, weil zu viel Scrollen notwendig ist. Mit Wasserzeichen-DRM wird hier ein „weicher” Kopierschutz verwendet. Daher ist technisch zwar alles möglich – sogar eine unzulässige Weitergabe. Aber an sichtbaren und unsichtbaren Stellen wird der Käufer des E-Books als Wasserzeichen hinterlegt, sodass im Falle eines Missbrauchs die Spur zurückverfolgt werden kann.
