Conversation and Brain Damage (Hardcover)

How do people with brain damage communicate? How does the partial or total loss of the ability to speak and use language fluently manifest itself in actual conversation? How are people with brain damage able to expand their cognitive ability through interaction with others - and how do these discursive activities in turn influence cognition?

This groundbreaking collection of new articles by a wide range of international scholars examines how aphasia and other neurological deficits lead to language impairments that shape the production, reception and processing of language.
