Decades of study have revealed that bodily rhythms are crucial for producing and understanding speech and language, and for understanding their evolution and variability across populations-not only adults, but also developmental and clinical populations. It is also clear that there is perplexing ... Read more

  • Automaticity and Control in Language Processing

    Series series Advances in Behavioural Brain Science
    The use of language is a fundamental component of much of our day-to-day life. Language often co-occurs with other activities with which it must be coordinated. This raises the question of whether the cognitive processes involved in planning spoken utterances and in understanding them are autonomous or whether they are affected by, and perhaps affect, non-linguistic cognitive processes, with which ...

  • Mental Mechanisms

    Philosophical Perspectives on Cognitive Neuroscience

    A variety of scientific disciplines have set as their task explaining mental activities, recognizing that in some way these activities depend upon our brain.

  • How the Mind Comes into Being

    Introducing Cognitive Science from a Functional and Computational Perspective

    More than 2000 years ago Greek philosophers were pondering the puzzling dichotomy between our physical bodies and our seemingly non-physical minds. Yet even today, it remains puzzling how our mind controls our body, and vice versa, how our body shapes our mind. How is it that we can think highly abstract thoughts, seemingly fully detached from the actual, physical reality? This book offers an ... Read more
