Hard Cover. Condición: Near Fine --. Probable First. The study of lingistics has undergone major revisions over the years, based largely in normative data, and intuitkve analysis. Comparatively, little has been contributed by behavioral techniques in pathological states. Herein, the authors examine disloctaion of language in schizpohrenia, aphasia, and dementia by searching for features that link these aberrations of language. Using computer analysis of sponateous language output and other techniques, they suggest that speech and language have been elaborated from principles which underlie other neurological function. 135 pages including index. B&W photos, charts, diagrams. Fabulous copy.

Paperback. Condición: New. A treasury of poetry and prose from an unsung trailblazer of Black literature Lucia M. Pitts ( 1904-1973) was an African American writer and Army veteran whose story has never been told. Her poetry, including love lyrics of striking sensuality and honesty, was admired by Langston Hughes, Countee Cullen, and Dorothy West. Her work first appeared during the Harlem Renaissance, influenced by Harriet Monroe's Poetry magazine and blues singers Ma Rainey and Bessie Smith. A native of Chicago's Bronzeville, Pitts challenged discrimination and segregation throughout her remarkable life, both as a member of President Franklin Roosevelt's 'Black Cabinet' and as the first African American woman employed at the War Department. Then, in 1943, Pitts joined the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, the Army's only all-Black, all-female battalion, which later received the Congressional Gold Medal. Pitts's own account of her service with the Six Triple Eight, however, has remained unpublished until now. This volume brings together a biography of Pitts, her complete military memoir, and one hundred of her finest poems.
