"Cognitive Models in Palaeolithic Archaeology champions the use of formal cognitive models in the analysis of prehistoric remains from the deep past. The authors of individual chapters include many of the leading authorities in the nascent field of cognitive archaeology. After a historically organized introduction to evolutionary cognitive archaeology by Thomas Wynn, the chapters present and apply several different cognitive models to Palaeolithic remains, including expert cognition (T. Wynn, M. Lombard, M. Haidle, F. L. Coolidge), information processing (P. Barnard, I. Davidson, R. Byrne), material engagement theory (L. Malafouris), embodied/extended cognition (L. Overmann), neuroaesthetics (M. Martin-Loeches), visual resonance theory (D. Hodgson), theory of mind (J. Cole), and neuronal recycling (T. Wynn, L. Overmann, F. L. Coolidge, K. Janulis). The authors address archaeological remains from the entire range of the Palaeolithic, from the earliest stone tools 3.3 million years ago to artistic developments that emerged after 50,000 years ago. The volume demonstrates clearly the kinds of insights that can be gained by applying formal cognitive models to Palaeolithic evidence."

"This volume comprises the latest developments in both fundamental science and patient-specific applications, discussing topics such as: cellular mechanics, injury biomechanics, biomechanics of the heart and vascular system, algorithms of computational biomechanics for medical image analysis, and both patient-specific fluid dynamics and solid mechanics simulations. With contributions from researchers world-wide, Computational Biomechanics for Medicine: Measurments, Models, and Predictions provides an opportunity for specialists in the field to present their latest methodologies and advancements."

"This book focuses on the singular situation in Israel, whose complex multiculturalism has Hebrew and Arabic as official languages, English as an academic and political language, and tongues such as Russian and Amharic spoken by immigrants.Presenting research on bi- and trilingualism in Israel from a multitude of perspectives . The book focuses on four aspects of multilingualism and literacy in Israel, Arabic-Hebrew bilingual education and Arabic literacy development, second-language Hebrew literacy among immigrant children, literacy in English as a second and third language, and adult bilingualism. Chapters dissect findings on immigrant youth education, language impairment in bilinguals, and neurocognitive features of bilingual language processing. This book integrates linguistics, sociology, education, cognitive science, and neuroscience."
