Abstract:
"The architectures and mechanisms underlying language processing form one important part of the general structure of cognition. This book, written by leading experts in the field of sentence processing, brings together linguistic, psychological, and computational perspectives on some of the fundamental issues concerning these architectures and mechanisms. Architectures and Mechanisms for Language Processing will appeal to students and scholars alike as a comprehensive and timely survey of recent work in this interdisciplinary area."--Jacket.
