Our ability to speak, write, understand speech and read is critical to our ability to function in today's society. As such, psycholinguistics, or the study of how humans learn and use language, is a central topic in cognitive science. This comprehensive handbook is a collection of chapters written not by practitioners in the field, who can summarize the work going on around them, but by trailblazers from a wide array of subfields, who have been shaping the field of psycholinguistics over the last decade. Some topics discussed include how children learn language, how average adults understand and produce language, how language is represented in the brain, how brain-damaged individuals perform in terms of their language abilities and computer-based models of language and meaning. This is required reading for advanced researchers, graduate students and upper-level undergraduates who are interested in the recent developments and the future of psycholinguistics.

The Quantitative Production Analysisis a system that has been developed for the characterization of aspects of aphasic sentence production and which has been shown to yield reliable results across raters, and across samples for the same patient. The analysis system is carried out on samples of narrative speech elicited from aphasic patients in a story-telling format. The samples are systematically culled of irrelevant and/or non-propositional content according to stated criteria and the resulting "narrative" sample (of at least 150 words) is analyzed on the basis of a number of structural and morphological indices. Descriptive statistics are provided on each index for a group of 29 non-fluent aphasic patients and ten normal control patients. The training manual for this system provides a rationale for the approach along with instructions for elicitation, transcription and scoring of patients' samples. For each step of the process, audiotaped samples are provided with completed scoresheets to enhance learning of the system. Throughout the manual, numerous examples are provided to clarify the scoring criteria. A computer spreadsheet is provided that automatically calculates each of the indices from the entered data. Several publications are available in the literature that have employed the system, which can be used to quantify changes in patients' sentence construction skills after therapy or with recovery.

Different from a textbook or academic journal, the File represents a collection of explicit descriptions about therapy interventions written by practitioners themselves. The description of the rationale for the therapy, the intervention itself and evaluation of outcomes are of paramount importance. Each contributor guides the reader through the thinking that they engaged in as they decided what to do, often with considerable frankness about the difficulties involved. The File will be of equal value to experienced practitioners and students alike.
