Taylor & Francis Pragmatic Development
Book SynopsisThe pragmatic system consists of the rules for appropriate and communicatively effective language use. Pragmatic Development provides an integrated view of the acquisition of all the various pragmatic subsystems, including expression of communicative intents, participation in conversation, and production of extended discourse.For the first time, the three components of the pragmatic system are presented in a way that makes clear how they relate to each other and why they all fall under the rubric pragmatics. Ninio and Snow combine their own extensive work in these three domains with an overview of the field of pragmatic development, making clear how linguistic pragmatics relates to other aspects of language development, to social development, and to becoming a member of one''s culture. This book is bound to be a valuable text for advanced courses in language acquisition as well as useful supplementary reading for an introductory course.Table of ContentsIntroduction: What Is Pragmatics? -- The Communicative Uses of Speech -- Prelinguistic Communication and the Transition to Speech -- The First Stage of Speech Use -- The Acquisition of a Verbal-Communicative Repertoire -- Participation in Verbal Interaction -- Children as Conversationalists -- The Pragmatics of Connected Discourse

Taylor & Francis Human Spatial Cognition and Experience
Book SynopsisThis book offers students an introduction to human spatial cognition and experience and is designed for graduate and advanced undergraduate students who are interested in the study of maps in the head and the psychology of space. We live in space and space surrounds us. We interact with space all the time, consciously or unconsciously, and make decisions and actions based on our perceptions of that space. Have you ever wondered how some people navigate perfectly using maps in their heads while other people get lost even with a physical map? What do you mean when you say you have a poor sense of direction? How do we know where we are? How do we use and represent information about space?This book clarifies that our knowledge and feelings emerge as a consequence of our interactions with the surrounding space, and show that the knowledge and feelings direct, guide, or limit our spatial behavior and experience. Space matters, or more specifically space we perceive matters. Trade Review"This book gives us a readable and comprehensive overview of a fast-developing interdisciplinary field. An excellent introduction for beginners, a welcome refresher for working scientists."—Nora S. Newcombe, Laura H. Carnell Professor of Psychology and James H. Glackin Distinguished Faculty Fellow, Temple University, USA"This book is a timely addition to the literature on spatial and environmental cognition and experience. In this era of nearly unbridled enthusiasm for what neuroscience can reveal, Toru’s book reminds us that mind and behavior are not just in the brain, but in the brain and nervous system in the body in the physical and sociocultural world."—Daniel R. Montello, Professor of Geography, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA"Toru Ishikawa presents an excellently written and concise account of research done on human spatial cognition. The book covers a full range of topics including motivation and history through methodological issues, empirical results to applications, and societal implications. A great introduction to the fascinating field of spatial cognition. The book should be read by everyone interested to understand how we know where we are."—Christian Freksa, Professor for informatics and director of the Bremen Spatial Cognition Center, University of Bremen, GermanyTable of ContentsPreface List of Figures List of Tables 1.

Taylor & Francis Bed Number Ten
Book SynopsisA patient''s personal view of long term care.Seen through the eyes of a patient totally paralyzed with Guillain-Barré syndrome, this moving book takes you through the psychological and physical pain of an eleven month hospital stay. BED NUMBER TEN reads like a compelling novel, but is entirely factual.You will meet:The ICU staff who learned to communicate with the paralyzed woman - and those who did not bother.The physicians whose visits left her baffled about her own case.The staff and physicians who spoke to her and others who did not recognize her presence.The nurse who tucked Sue tightly under the covers, unaware that she was soaking with perspiration.The nurse who took the time to feed her drop by drop, as she slowly learned how to swallow again.The physical therapist who could read her eyes and spurred her on to move again as if the battle were his own.In these pages, which reveal the caring, the heroism, andTrade Review"...offers invaluable messages for anyone dealing with dependency, suffering, loneliness, helplessness, or acute or chronic debilitating diseases - in short, for anyone taking care of others. No one reading this book will ever again regard the helpless or incommunicative patient the same way."- New England Journal of Medicine"It is a powerful book, which - thankfully -has a happy ending. But the sadness outweighs the gladness, especially where Baier’s medical care is concerned. Perhaps BED NUMBER TEN should be required reading at medical schools." -Macon Telegraph and News "Baier gives us a palpable sense of the course of the disease, the pain endured, the depression and loneliness...sincere and honest..." -The Boston Herald "...if I or someone I care about were felled by Guillain-Barre Syndrome, BED NUMBER TEN is the handbook I’d recommend for battling through the physical anguish, the emotional terror and the mental strain of coming back from G.B.S...." -Des Moines Register "I cannot begin to explain the importance of this book for health care professionals as well as the general public. As a nurse educator, this book has had profound impact on me as I attempt to teach students the art of caring for acute and chronically ill persons." -RN, MS (Nursing College) "The story of her illness is interesting reading and a reminder of how fragile good health is and how cherished it should be." -Sue Allison, United Press International "Baier’s chronicle of courage offers hope to victims of the catastrophic disease." -Publishers Weekly
