About the Book

This volume is the first single-authored volume devoted to understanding how deep brain structures participate in language and memory. Addressing a relatively new area of research, the book is unique in two ways. First, it comprehensively covers both language and memory not only with extensive literature reviews, but also with examinations of the anatomy of the structures involved and discussions of theory in light of empirical data. Second, the book takes a systems approach to the topics. In order to produce and understand language or to record and retrieve memories, different parts of the brain must operate as integrated systems. As subcortical structures are parts of these systems, this book endeavors to understand how these phylogenetically older structures contribute to systems responsible for communication and mnestic functions. Designed to facilitate this end, each of the book's sections follows a neuroanatomy-empirical data-theory format.

About the Author :
Bruce A. Crosson is an Associate Professor in the Department of Clinical and Health Psychology at the University of Florida in Gainesville. Known internationally for his theoretical work on subcortical aphasia, he has also authored a number of book chapters and journal articles on such topics as memory deficits after head injury, language deficits after brain damage, and rehabilitation. In April of 1991, he was recognized by the graduate students in his department who honored him with the Hugh C. Davis Award for Excellence in Psychotherapy Supervision.

Review :
A first-rate piece of scholarship and deserves to be widely read. - Contemporary Psychology This clear, careful, and comprehensive tome reviews theory and research....The descriptions and diagrams of neuroanatomy make the work accessible to all but the most biologically timid. - Bulletin of the Menninger Clinic The a uthor does a nice job of defining and clarifying terms and concepts used in this area such as fluency, comprehension, semantics, speech, and language...For those interested in this area and working with this patient populations, this book can be a useful tool in helping to bridge the gap. - Psychotherapy in Private Practice
