Description
The ever-expanding repertoire of neurocognitive methods has provided an unprecedented opportunity to investigate language production. The research reported in this volume demonstrates the usefulness of these methods for advancing our understanding of the neural bases of language production. Through the investigation of language production in different output modalities (spoken and manual) and different speakers (monolinguals and bilinguals), contributions to this volume attempt to define universal neural mechanisms for language production. Examining the interface between language production and comprehension, the studies in this volume also shed light on brain mechanisms that have general functions in language processing.
