Milestones in the History of Aphasia: Theories and Protagonists (Brain, Behaviour and Cognition) - Softcover
Synopsis
Milestones in the History of Aphasia surveys the history of aphasia from its earliest mentions in ancient times, to the turn of the new millennium in 2000.
The book takes a predominantly chronological approach starting with an examination of the earliest medical documents and medieval attempts to understand aphasia, to the momentous events of the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries, up to the development of modern cognitive neuroscience in recent years. It traces the development of theory about and understanding of aphasia, and the role of significant individuals in this history. The result is a well illustrated introduction to the main events and personalities in the rich history of aphasia.
This accessible book provides a unique insight into the fascinating development of research in aphasia. It will be of great interest to undergraduates and postgraduates, researchers, teachers and clinicians in psychology, speech and language pathology and therapy, neurology and linguistics.

"Milestones in the History of Aphasia will be the definitive text in this area for many years to come: It is itself an important milestone in our understanding of aphasia." - Prof John C Marshall and Dr Jennifer M Gurd, Oxford University Department of Clinical Neurology, UK
