Language: normal and pathological development: Normal & Pathological Development - Tapa dura

Cette monographie détaillée est dédiée à la regrettée Dr. Elizabeth Bates de San Diego et de Rome qui a établi de nombreux liens entre le développement cérébral et la fonction cérébrale. Cet ouvrage met à jour les progrès dans la compréhension de l'apprentissage du langage chez les enfants et ses pathologies. Il met l'accent sur les bases neurologiques de l'acquisition du langage courant et les conséquences d'un certain nombre de troubles à l'aide d'outils comme l'analyse détaillée de la compréhension, la production et l'utilisation du langage, mais aussi l'imagerie fonctionnelle cérébrale et l'électrophysiologie. Il souligne aussi l'importance du circuit souscortical et du dialogue intérieur et examine le déploiement ou la régression du langage en cas de lésions cérébrales focales, d'autisme, de syndrome de Williams et de troubles du développement du langage oral et écrit. Ce livre est en anglais This comprehensive monograph is dedicated to the late Dr. Elizabeth Bates of San Diego and Rome who built so many bridges between brain development and function in a variety of languages. It updates progress in understanding children's language learning and its pathologies. It stresses the neurologic basis of normal language acquisition and the consequences of a variety of disorders using such tools as detailed analysis of language comprehension, production, and use, as well as functional brain imaging, and electrophysiology. It also underlines the importance of subcortical circuitry and inner speech, and reviews the unfolding or regression of language in focal brain lesions, autism, Williams syndrome, and developmental disorders of oral and written language.
