It is beautifully written-clear and difficult ideas and concepts are explained with great clarity to provide the reader a rich window into the approaches, methodologies, theories, and experimental findings of this flourishing, exciting, and growing field of research. Kudos to author David Kemmerer who has written a must-read for anyone who is studying, doing research, teaching, or is just interested in learning about language and the brain. Sheila Blumstein, Brown University, USA A thorough and timely update of the definitive text on the cognitive neuroscience of language.
