This handbook provides a comprehensive review of new developments in the relationship between the brain and language from both basic research and clinical neuroscience perspectives. Contributions from leading figures emphasize state-of-the-art methodologies and their application to the central questions of the field.

“Libraries catering for undergraduates in both fields may well find themselves being asked to get it for seminar reading.”

Reference Reviews

“This is a lengthy and comprehensive set of volumes covering all relevant issues in the neuroscience of language in a current and immediately useful package. Readers will enjoy this as primer through individual chapters, or as a complete review of the field.”

Doody’s

“A comprehensive handbook of the neuropsychology of language has been long overdue. But here it is, superbly edited, state-of-the-art. No better way to celebrate the second centennial of Franz-Joseph Gall’s pioneering treatise.”

Willem J.M. Levelt, Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics

“This book has an all-star cast of distinguished experts on language and the brain. A must read for students, teachers, and researchers in psychology and linguistics.”

Matthew Traxler, University of California, Davis

This new in paperback handbook provides a comprehensive review of developments in the relationship between the brain and language from both basic research and clinical neuroscience perspectives. Contributions from leading figures emphasize state-of-the-art methodologies and their application to the central questions of the field.

Including research that focuses on all parts of language, from syntax and semantics to the neuropsychology of both spoken and written language, the articles explore the variety of methodologies used in this area, including brain imaging, electrophysiology, and transcranial magnetic stimulation. The contributors cover a wide range of issues, including basic and high level linguistic functions, individual differences as well as group studies, and neurologically intact and different clinical populations.

Addressing a wide range of issues using a unique combination of basic science and clinical research, The Handbook of the Neuropsychology of Language offers a complete and up-to-date look at the field.

Miriam Faust is the Rector of Bar Ilan University and head of the Brain and Language Laboratory, Gonda Multidisciplinary Brain Research Center, Bar Ilan University. She is a member of the editorial board for Brain and Language.
