Language & Brain Lecture 120110
... Most of what we know about the brain comes from brain damage - Damage to specific regions often produces specific deficits - e.g., In the 1800s, Broca observed that damage to the left frontal lobe led to language deficits (aphasia) - This is how it was first discovered that different parts of the br ...
