"Newcomers to the field of neurolinguistics will find this book readable. A notably appealing aspect of this book is that it is organised in a way that gives the reader a flexible and individual approach to the text. Each chapter stands for itself such that it may be read without having to refer to the other chapters. The language is kept simple but all the technical terms are provided, explained, and illustrated, and a comprehensive glossary provides additional information." - Prof. Dr. Lutz Jancke, University of Zurich, Switzerland, in Laterality
