The Linguistic Cerebellum provides a comprehensive analysis of this unique part of the brain that has the most number of neurons, each operating in distinct networks to perform diverse functions. This book outlines how those distinct networks operate in relation to non- motor language skills. Coverage includes cerebellar anatomy and function in relation to speech perception, speech planning, verbal fluency, grammar processing, and reading and writing, along with a discussion of language disorders. Discusses the neurobiology of cerebellar language functions, encompassing both normal language function and language disordersIncludes speech perception, processing, and planningContains cerebellar function in reading and writingExplores how language networks give insight to function elsewhere in the brain INDICE: Introduction: Introduction to the Linguistic Cerebellum Peter Mariën and Mario Manto Chapter 1: The Phonetic Cerebellum: Cerebellar Involvement in Speech Sound Production Wolfram Ziegler Chapter 2: The Role of the Cerebellum in Speech Perception and Language Comprehension Ingo Hertrich, Klaus Mathiak, and Hermann Ackermann Chapter 3: The Cerebellum and Verbal Working Memory Cherie L.
