Reading is one of the most sophisticated demonstrations of human
pattern recognition and symbolic processing skill. Skilled readers
effortlessly comprehend written text at rates of at least 300 words
per minute, despite the complex interactions between perceptual,
cognitive and memory processes required for effective
comprehension. Understanding how we achieve this remarkable feat
has been a focus of investigation since the birth of experimental
psychology. Over the last two decades, visual word recognition has
been at the forefront of developments in cognitive science. This
book brings together many of the most influential contributors to
these developments to reflect on current issues in the cognitive
science of lexical processing and the methods required for further
progress. The first section focuses on computational models.
Written words provide a fertile context for large-scale modelling
and the domain of lexical retrieval has become a test-bed for
evaluating competing theoretical frameworks. The later sections
draw upon cognitive psychology, linguistics, philosophy, computer
science and neuroscience to elaborate critical theoretical issues
and to develop novel research tools.

Der Samsara schliesst und offnet sich ...es ist das Bodhi'sat." "...Mit diesen Worten werden vier junge Menschen unfreiwillig aus ihrem Alltag gerissen und finden sich in einer neuen und fremdartigen Welt wieder, die zunachst den Anschein einer hoch entwickelten, nahezu perfekten Gesellschaft gibt. Doch nicht einmal die Tetraten, die Geschicke ihres Reiches lenkenden mit ihren jahrtausende alten Erfahrungen ahnen, dass ihre Welt von einer ubermachtigen Macht beobachtet wird und alles andere als Sicherheit bietet. Wahrend die vier Menschen nach ihrem Platz im Travlanischen Reich suchen, nehmen Ereignisse ihren Lauf, die auch das Leben auf der Erde entscheidend verandern werden."
