ABSTRACT
By taking account of the issues raised in this book, our aim is to propose an information-processing framework that is compatible with data drawn from a wide variety of approaches and traditions. The aim is to produce a single framework which includes a model of face recognition that takes account of the literature on speech production; that provides a model of word recognition which is compatible with recent developments in the neuropsychology; that accounts for recent neuropsychological and experimental evidence of the relationship between proper name and common name processing; and that incorporates recognition of both visually and auditorily presented words and names.
