Research in semantics is conducted in a wide variety of
disciplines, and the strength of this book is in bringing those
areas together in one volume. Contributions come from an
international group of applied researchers. Models of semantics are
being influenced by research on the development of semantic
processing in children, and by work on the disruption of semantic
processing in brain damage such as stroke and Alzheimer's disease.
Clinical work is benefiting from the application of theoretical
models while pathological findings are crucial for testing and
developing such models. The book has chapters on: models of
semantic processing, connectionist modelling, sentence processing
in children and adults, semantic processing in the normal elderly,
semantic category disorders, semantic therapy in aphasia, semantic
processing in Alzheimer's disease, semantic dementia and conceptual
semantics. The book is aimed primarily at the undergraduate reader
although some chapters will be of interest to graduate and research
students. Students of linguistics, psychology and speech and
language sciences will find the book immensely useful.
