Relations of Language and Thought by Marc Marschark, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

The relationship of language to cognition, especially in development, is an issue that has occupied philosophers, psychologists, and linguists for centuries. In recent years, the scientific study of sign languages and deaf individuals has greatly enhanced our understanding of deafness, language, and cognition. This Counterpoints volume considers the extent to which the use of sign language might affect the course and character of cognitive development, and presents a variety of viewpoints in this debate. | Relations of Language and Thought by Marc Marschark, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
