Psychopathological symptoms in schizophrenia are mainly characterized by thought and language disorders, which are strictly intertwined. In particular, language is the distinctive dimension of human beings and is ontologically related to brain development. Although normal at the levels of segmental phonology and morphological organization, the speech of patients suffering from schizophrenia is often characterized by flattened intonation and word-finding difficulties. Furthermore, research suggests that the superior temporal gyrus and specific prefrontal areas which support language in humans are altered in people with schizophrenia. Brambilla and Marini bring together international contributors to explore the link between brain evolution and the psychopathological features of schizophrenia, with a focus on language and its neural underpinnings. Divided into three sections the book covers: brain evolution and language phylogenesis brain abnormalities in schizophrenia psychopathology and schizophrenia. This theoretical approach will appeal to professionals including clinical psychologists, cognitive neuroscientists, neuropsychiatrists, neuropsychologists, neurolinguists, and researchers considering the links between brain evolution, language and psychopathology in schizophrenia"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Schizophrenia. 650 0 $a Schizophrenics $x Language. 650 0 $a Psychology, Pathological. 650 0 $a Developmental neurobiology. 700 1 $a Brambilla, Paolo, $e editor of compilation. 700 1 $a Marini, Andrea, $e editor of compilation. 830 0 $a Explorations in mental health series. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20201103014029.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5399795A6B5511E69AFE1DDBDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
