How are languages represented in the human brain? With a sharp focus on multilingualism, this culmination of cutting-edge research sheds light on this challenging question. Ideas from neuroscience have increasingly been applied to the study of language, exploring the neural processes involved in acquisition, maintenance and loss of language and languages, and the interaction between languages in bi- and multilingual speakers.
Alongside a comprehensive analysis of the theoretical and experimental contributions to the field, it presents new data and analysis obtained from a multilingualism fMRI study. Using data from a variety of experiments, this is the first book-length study to offer a new neuroscientific model for analysing multilingualism. It also includes a unique longitudinal study of second and third language acquisition combined with extensive empirically valid language
