It then delves into key topics and theories. It explores such questions as: How do the meanings of words for objects and events relate to the brain regions involved in perception and action? Are different semantic categories of words, like those for animals and tools, segregated in the brain? What are the neural substrates of abstract words?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe book describes how different theories answer these questions, and how numerous experiments help adjudicate between them.
