Biography

Davide Crepaldi is an Associate Professor at SISSA, Trieste, Italy, and also acting Editor at the British Journal of Psychology. He received his PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience at the University of Milano Bicocca, Italy.

"This volume is an essential new reference for psycholinguistic approaches to morphology. It presents a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the most important findings and theories in the domain, and will appeal to both experts and newcomers within the field. The topics chosen invite the reader to consider morphology from a range of perspectives, and thus to appreciate the profound relationship between linguistic structure, acquisition, and processing." -- Professor Kathy Rastle, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK

"The study of word processing provides a fantastic window on the human mind. This volume provides an excellent and authorative guide to the state-of-the-art in present-day research on how words are processed, from all relevant perspectives: production and perception, speech and writing, and the acquisition of these abilities. This book is therefore an indispensable guide for students and researchers in this domain of psycholinguistic research." -- Geert Booij, Emeritus Professor of Linguistics, Leiden University, Netherlands
