This textbook explores the ways in which language informs the
structure and function of the human mind, offering a point of
entry into the fascinating territory of cognitive science. Focusing
mainly on syntactic issues, Language in Cognition is a
unique contribution to this burgeoning field of study.
* Guides undergraduate students through the core questions of
linguistics and cognitive science, and provides tools that will
help them think about the field in a structured way
* Uses the study of language and how language informs the
structure and function of the human mind to introduce the major
ideas in modern cognitive science, including its history and
controversies
* Explores questions such as: what does it mean to say that
linguistics is part of the cognitive sciences; how do the core
properties of language compare with the core properties of other
human cognitive abilities such as vision, music, mathematics, and
other mental building blocks; and what is the relationship between
language and thought?
* Includes an indispensable study guide as well as extensive
references to encourage further independent study
