The Cognitive Electrophysiology of Mind and Brain presents state-of-the-art reviews of the latest developments in the study of the relationships between mind and brain as revealed using the recording of bioelectric (ERPs) and magnetic responses (ERFs) of the brain. PET and fMRI measures of brain activity are also covered, in an effort to show how the different signals of brain activation can be combined and how they can complement each other in the elucidation of brain distributed systems involved in human cognition. Emphasis is placed on reviewing experimental findings in the areas of attention, language, memory, visual and auditory perception, and brain damage research. The book ventures to close the current gap in cognitive neuroscience between a cognitive processing approach to understanding brain function and an approach that analyzes emotional brain states, which are of great importance to thought and behavior in normal people and those with emotional disorders. In addition, the book describes research that studies cognition from a developmental perspective in both normal conditions and after atypical early experience. Beyond simply sharing knowledge from ongoing research, the book also identifies some acute outstanding problems in the field and predicts future developments. Thorough appendices about electrophysiological and neuroimaging methodology and an introduction into neurological diseases make this book particularly well suited for students. Key Features: Provides an original post-cognitive theoretical approach to the investigation of the human mind and brain. Presents an integrated view of the emotional and cognitive features as well as developmental features of neurocognitive systems. Reviews event-related potentials recordings for both healthy individuals and brain damaged patients. Includes extensive methodological appendices. Clarifies complex theoretical and methodological points throughout the text with well-illustrated, original artwork.
