Aphasia


 

Aphasia, Volume 185 covers important advances in our understanding of how language is processed in the brain and how lesions or degeneration in the left hemisphere affect language processing. This new release reviews research regarding how language recovers from brain injury, along with new interventions developed to enhance recovery, including language rehabilitation, noninvasive brain stimulation and medications. Sections cover neuroanatomy and neurophysiology of language networks, focus on mechanisms of recovery (and decline) of language, and include chapters on intervention, including recently developed behavioral therapies, brain stimulation, medications, and a review of studies of treatment for both post-stroke aphasia and primary progressive aphasia.
  • Summarizes advances made in understanding language processing
  • Discusses how lesions and brain degeneration affect language production and comprehension
  • Identifies language networks based on functional imaging and lesion mapping
  • Provides interventions for recovery, including brain stimulation, behavioral interventions and medication
