Much of what we say is never said aloud. It occurs only silently,
as inner speech. We chastise, congratulate, joke, and generate
endless commentary, all without making a sound. This distinctively
human ability to create public language in the privacy of our own
minds-to, in a sense, "hear" ourselves talking when no one else
can-is no less remarkable for its familiarity. And yet, until
recently, inner speech remained at the periphery of philosophical
and psychological theorizing. This volume, comprised of chapters
written by an interdisciplinary group of leading philosophers,
psychologists, and neuroscientists, displays the rapidly growing
interest among researchers in the puzzles surrounding the nature
and cognitive role of the inner voice. Questions explored include:
the aids and obstacles inner speech presents to self-knowledge; the
complex relation it bears to overt speech production and
perception; the means by which inner speech can be identified and
empirically assessed; its role in generating auditory verbal
hallucinations; and its relationship to conceptual thought itself.
