The neural architecture of the language comprehension network: converging evidence from lesion and connectivity analyses

While traditional models of language comprehension have focused on the left posterior temporal cortex as the neurological basis for language comprehension, lesion and functional imaging studies indicate the involvement of an extensive network of cortical regions. However, the full extent of this net...
