Neurobehavior of Language and Cognition

This volume has been composed as an appreciation of Martin L. At least one contributor to each paper in this volume has been touched by Marty in some way; Throughout his scholarly work, Martha Taylor Sarno notes, Marty never loses the human perspective, e. Many of the people whom Marty has influenced have been able to contribute to this volume. The intersection of neurolinguistics and neuropsychology lies at the core of the cognitive neurosciences. Advances in our understanding of how language and other cognitive abilities relate to each other and to the brain have complemented the prior research on frank brain damage in the aphasias. The editors have invited senior scholars in the field to present a volume on a range of language and non-language cognitive phenomena in normals and in brain damage from the perspective of neurobehaviour, including neurochemistry. This volume should appeal to neuropsychologists, speech/language pathologists, behavioural neurologists, and neuropsychiatrists.
