Architectures and Mechanisms for Language ProcessingThe architectures and mechanisms underlying language processing form one important part of the general structure of cognition. This boo brings together linguistic, psychological and computational perspectives on some of the fundamental issues. Introductory chapters offer overviews on important psycholinguistic research frameworks and highlight both shared assumptions and controversial issues. Subsequent chapters explore syntactic and lexical mechanisms;
As a subject of universal appeal, spatial demonstratives have been studied extensively from a variety of disciplines. What marks the present study as distinct is that it is an English-Chinese comparative study set in a cognitive-linguistic framework and that the methodology features a parallel corpora-based, discourse analysis approach. The framework illuminates the nature of the demonstratives’ basic and extended meaning and use, the connections between them, and the mechanisms that govern and constrain their trends of extension.
This volume summarises the most recent advances in the optimal clinical management of preterm labour, using the best available evidence. Preterm labour remains a challenge today, even with the latest developments discussed here. The contributors (mostly practising clinicians) are all actively involved in research into the mechanisms, aetiology, treatment and associated outcomes of preterm labour.
