In the first comprehensive study of the relationship between music
and language from the standpoint of cognitive neuroscience,
Aniruddh D. Patel challenges the widespread belief that music and
language are processed independently. Since Plato's time, the
relationship between music and language has attracted interest and
debate from a wide range of thinkers. Recently, scientific research
on this topic has been growing rapidly, as scholars from diverse
disciplines, including linguistics, cognitive science, music
cognition, and neuroscience are drawn to the music-language
interface as one way to explore the extent to which different
mental abilities are processed by separate brain mechanisms.
Accordingly, the relevant data and theories have been spread across
a range of disciplines. This volume provides the first synthesis,
arguing that music and language share deep and critical
connections, and that comparative research provides a powerful way
to study the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying these
uniquely human abilities.
