This volume summarizes research on the anatomy and function of the temporal lobe under both normal and pathological conditions. In addition, it discusses the interactions of the temporal lobe with other brain structures. The book highlights the role of the temporal lobe in language processing as well as vision, object, face recognition and processing. The book also discusses the temporal lobe's role in reading, speech and the processing of color, music, action and memory. Temporal lobe disorders, assessments and treatments are also covered, including encephalitis, Alzheimer's, epilepsy, Korsakov's syndrome, and more. - Summarizes research on the anatomy and function of the temporal lobe - Identifies the importance of the temporal lobe to language and speech - Includes how the temporal lobe interacts with other brain structures - Reviews disorders of the temporal lobe, including dementia, encephalitis, and more
