Cognitive Neuroscience Author : Michael S. Until now, however, there has not been a single introductory textbook that focuses specifically on this topic. Cognitive Neuroscience of Language fills that gap by providing an up-to-date, wide-ranging, and pedagogically practical survey of the most important developments in the field. It guides students through all of the major areas of investigation, beginning with fundamental aspects of brain structure and function, and then proceeding to cover aphasia syndromes, the perception and production of speech, the processing of language in written and signed modalities, the meanings of words, and the formulation and comprehension of complex expressions, including grammatically inflected words, complete sentences, and entire stories.
Passive current conduction is potential, because when viewed as a recording displayed called electrotonic conduction or decremental conduction. The bull placidly looked at the smiling Delgado. George R. Mangun received his Ph. In , with Michael Gazzaniga and others, Dr. Mangun founded the Cognitive Neuroscience Society.
He uses cognitive neuroscience tools in the study of brain attention mechanisms. Michael S. Value and Decision Making We survey the anatomy and functions of the brain and the nervous system.
That year had been a rich one for several disciplines. Freeman IX. Raichle understood the potential of these new scanning methods, but he also realized that some basic problems had to be solved. Along the length of the axons, there are evenly spaced gaps in the myelin.
Functional magnetic resonance imaging of the human corpus callosum can also help assign particular functions to particular callosal sectors. Surprisingly, BOLD blood oxygen level-dependent signals can also be detected in the white matter, and Tettamanti et al. Corpus Callosum 19 and Omura et al. Epilogue Science is a human endeavor. Since those early days our understanding of the links between mind and brain has continued to grow.

Journal of Anatomy, , — After the course ended, Dr. Sperry was kind enough to let this ill-clad and untutored undergraduate work in his psy- chobiology laboratory, where so many fundamental discoveries about the neural bases of cognition and consciousness were in the process of being made.
This proved to be a life-transforming experience. Mike was working with Dr. Sperry and Dr. Joseph Bogen on neuropsychological studies of patients who had under- gone cerebral commissurotomy as a treatment for intractable epilepsy, and Chuck was doing basic research on the functions of the corpus cal- losum in nonhuman primates. With their complementary cognitive styles, Chuck and Mike made a great team. Mean- while, Mike forged ahead with the studies of the commissurotomy patients that have done so much to illuminate the neural substrates of the human mind.

Finally, the text ends with Chapter 17, Cognitive Neuroscience and Society, which critically examines the ways in which cognitive neuroscience knowledge can be applied to domains of broad societal concern such as education, social inequality, the law, and morality. The chapters have been carefully sequenced so that information in later chapters builds upon information in earlier ones.
Notably, the processes most linked to motoric and sensory functions are presented earlier, and those that depend on more integrative aspects of brain function, such as executive function and emotion, are presented later.
For example, the chapter on object recognition directly precedes that on spatial processing, so that the student is introduced to the ventral and dorsal visual processing streams in consecutive chapters. Yet, despite the intentional progression of ideas across chapters, chapters are written to be self-contained so that instructors may alter the order of material depending on specific syllabus needs.
We use analogies extensively so that difficult conceptual issues can be presented in a tractable manner. To keep students oriented to terminology, key terms are introduced in boldface and defined in a glossary at the back of the book. Chapter summaries allow students to review the material learned or preview what is to be discussed, and outlines at the beginning of each chapter provide a clear conceptual structure of the contents.
All these features are designed to make this book as user-friendly as possible. Never, however, are students overwhelmed with a laundry list of findings or with overly technical arcane issues.
Rather, representative studies are used to highlight the nature of current debates, so that students can understand, and think critically about, the conceptual issues under consideration and how researchers attempt to reason based on experimental evidence. Our extensive work in both research and teaching in cognitive neuroscience allows us to present issues in a manner that is precise and sophisticated, yet also accessible and integrative.
While the approach of the prior editions has been retained, this fourth edition has nevertheless been extensively revamped. The main new additions are as follows. All figures from earlier editions have been redrawn, and many new figures have been added.
Other figures present data from representative studies in the field, so that students can gain experience in viewing and interpreting data; still others depict important experimental paradigms so that students can quickly grasp how a key study was conducted. Two chapters have been added to the text to reflect growing areas of research over the last decade. A new stand-alone chapter covering social cognitive neuroscience Chapter 13 is now included due to the burgeoning growth of research in this area.
In the previous edition of the text, this material was relegated to a relatively short section of the chapter on Emotion. The new Social Cognition chapter addresses how new knowledge from neuroscience expands our understanding of how we perceive the mental states of other people, categorize people into social groups, and control our behavior to align with social norms.
