The Oxford Handbook of Language Production

By: Matthew Goldrick,Victor Ferreira,Michele Miozzo

The Oxford Handbook of Language Production provides a comprehensive, multidisciplinary review of the complex mechanisms involved in language production. It describes what we know of the computational, linguistic, cognitive, and brain bases of human language production - from how we conceive the messages we aim to convey, to how we retrieve the right (and sometimes wrong) words, how we form grammatical sentences, and how we assemble and articulate individual sounds, letters, and gestures. Contributions from leading psycholinguists, linguists, and neuroscientists offer readers a broad perspective on the latest research, highlighting key investigations into core aspects of human language processing. The Handbook is organized into three sections: speaking, written and sign languages, and how language production interfaces with the wider cognitive system, including control processes, memory, non-linguistic gestures, and the perceptual system. These chapters discuss a wide array of levels of representation, from sentences to individual words, speech sounds and articulatory gestures, extending to discourse and the broader social context of speaking. Detailed supporting chapters provide an overview of key issues in linguistic structure at each level of representation. Authoritative yet concisely written, the volume will be of interest to scholars and students working in cognitive psychology, psycholinguistics, cognitive neuroscience, computer science, audiology, and education, and related fields.

Liberal Imperialism in Germany

Expansionism and Nationalism, 1848-1884

By: Matthew P. Fitzpatrick

In a work based on new archival, press, and literary sources, the author revises the picture of German imperialism as being the brainchild of a Machiavellian Bismarck or the "conservative revolutionaries" of the twentieth century. Instead, Fitzpatrick argues for the liberal origins of German imperialism, by demonstrating the links between nationalism and expansionism in a study that surveys the half century of imperialist agitation and activity leading up to the official founding of Germany’s colonial empire in 1884.

Environmental Archaeology

Theoretical and Practical Approaches

By: Chris Turney,Matthew Canti,Nick Branch,Peter Clark

Environmental Archaeology: Theoretical and Practical Approaches outlines and assesses the various methods used to reconstruct and explain the past interaction between people and their environment. Emphasising the importance of a highly scientific approach to the subject, the book combines geoarchaeological, bioarchaeological (archaeobotany and zooarchaeology) and geochronological information and examines how these various aspects of archaeology may be used to enhance our knowledge and understanding of past human environments. Drawing from both the practical experiences of the authors and cutting-edge research, Environmental Archaeology: Theoretical and Practical Approaches is a valuable contribution to the subject. It will be essential reading for students and professionals in archaeology, geography and anthropology.

The Rise and Fall of the Brezhnev Doctrine in Soviet Foreign Policy

By: Matthew J. Ouimet

Ouimet argues that the now-famous reforms of Soviet bloc policy of the mid-1980s were not the instigation, but rather the climax of a fundamental transformation in Soviet policy toward Eastern Europe that had its origins in the Brezhnev era.

Cracking the Cancer Code

The Secret to Transforming Your Health from Inside Out

By: Matthew Loop

Blending cutting-edge scientific research with useful messages about personal responsibility and prosperity, Cracking the Cancer Code is a groundbreaking handbook which will help you understand and apply the principals of abundant health. Dr. Matthew J. Loop provides a brief overview of the nature and causes of cancer while discussing its common treatments, then elaborates on the various external and environmental factors that contribute to its development. He emphasizes the tenets of proper nutrition, and investigates the environmental hazards that people unwittingly expose themselves to on a daily basis. Dr. Loop also examines internal factors-thoughts, feelings, and disposition-and the role they ultimately play in physical health. Shattering commonly held beliefs about the nature and causes of cancer, Dr. Loop's Cracking the Cancer Code gives back what many facing the disease feel they have lost: a sense of their own power. Prosperity and abundance, in the form of health, manifests itself from the inside out. Cracking the Cancer Code is an easy-to-understand and comprehensive reference guide that will help anyone diagnosed with cancer discover the path to empowerment and optimal health.
