The Bilingual Brain is a fascinating and accessible exploration into the neural machinery that enables humans to master multiple languages. The late Albert Costa, a leading cognitive neuroscientist, demystifies how bilingualism reshapes our brain structure, enhances cognitive flexibility, and even delays the onset of age-related diseases. Through engaging experiments and real-world case studies, he reveals how bilinguals navigate linguistic conflicts, make more rational decisions, and develop a unique "meta-linguistic awareness." This book is a celebratory deep dive into one of humanity's most remarkable abilities, proving that speaking two languages is much more than a skill—it's a neurological superpower.
《双语大脑:关于语言科学的启示》是一次引人入胜且通俗易懂的探索,深入研究了使人类掌握多种语言的神经机制。已故的领先认知神经科学家阿尔伯特·科斯塔揭开了双语能力如何重塑我们的大脑结构、增强认知灵活性,甚至延迟年龄相关疾病发作的神秘面纱。通过有趣的实验和真实案例研究,他揭示了双语者如何驾驭语言冲突、做出更理性的决策,并发展出独特的“元语言意识”。这本书是对人类最卓越能力之一的庆贺式深潜,证明说两种语言不仅仅是一项技能——它是一种神经系统的超级力量。
Author Profile Albert Costa (1972-2018) was a renowned cognitive neuroscientist and research professor at Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona. As the founder of the Speech Production and Bilingualism Group, he dedicated his career to studying the cognitive and neural bases of language processing in multilingual individuals. His work was widely published in top scientific journals.
