Originally published in 1978, the contributors to this volume,
including the leading figures in experimental psychopathology, were
largely concerned with deducing the behaviour of schizophrenics
from general psychological theories of language, learning and
cognition. Their emphasis on deduction reflected a modern reliance
on laboratory experimentation, and, taken as a whole, the chapters
cover the breadth and variety of current approaches of the time to
the study of schizophrenic language and cognition. The first part
of the volume is concerned with recent developments in the study of
schizophrenic language. The second part deals with various aspects
of schizophrenic cognition. The final chapter, by the editor,
attempts to review and integrate what was currently known about
schizophrenic cognition and language. This chapter contrasts the
various experimental methodologies used to validate theories by
pointing out areas of agreement and disagreement as well as
possible directions for future theory and research. Here is a book
that at the time presented the most up-to-date overview available
on language and thought in schizophrenia. Today it can be read and
enjoyed in its historical context.
