这是张卡片来自于Uptight All Night ， 是我比较喜欢的一张。寄往了芬兰一个陌生人那里。 她的地址是通过postcrossing.com获得的。postcrossing.com是一个全球性的明信片儿交流网站。在那里，你可以给素未谋面的人发明信片儿，也会收到来自异国他乡的问候，觉得非常有意思。 这张卡片是我发出的第一张卡片卡片的名字叫做“The Night The World Turned Golded”。“The Night The World Turned Golded”是一套卡，共三张，这是第一张。我非常喜欢。给大家上个大点儿的图，一起欣赏吧。看不到这张图的可以到这里去看。
下面是我在卡片背后写的字：
Party
Here is the party Everyone seems happy. No matter what, Let's Enjoy
Everybody got a beer I have more If you need. Drink them with loneliness In it, maybe you can find me.
This place is full of people But all that I can hear Is just my heart beat... ...
文章的最后，我要跟大家分享一下Bernie Krause在世界各地记录的自然之声。值得一提的是他把这些音频同google Earth结合了起来，标注了这些声音录制的地点。通过听这些声音，我跟随者Bernie Krause神游了那些野外之地，跟随着他 in to the wild。这些声音，并都是轻柔恬静的，可是它们却带我走进了内心的宁静。 收听地址：http://earth.wildsanctuary.com/
P.S. 《in to the wild》是一本相当好的书，曾被拍成电影。我把此书和此电影列入了我本月的阅读观影计划。
Inthe last ten years the neuroscience of language has matured as a field.Ten years ago, neuroimaging was just being explored for neurolinguisticquestions, whereas today it constitutes a routine component. At thesame time there have been significant developments in linguistic andpsychological theory that speak to the neuroscience of language. This book consolidates those advances into a single reference. The Handbook of the Neuroscience of Languageprovides a comprehensive overview of this field. Divided into fivesections, section one discusses methods and techniques includingclinical assessment approaches, methods of mapping the human brain, anda theoretical framework for interpreting the multiple levels of neuralorganization that contribute to language comprehension. Section twodiscusses the impact imaging techniques (PET, fMRI, ERPs, electricalstimulation of language cortex, TMS) have made to language research.Section three discusses experimental approaches to the field, includingdisorders at different language levels in reading as well as writingand number processing. Additionally, chapters here presentcomputational models, discuss the role of mirror seytems for language, and cover brain lateralization with respect to language.Part four focuses on language in special populations, in variousdisease processes, and in developmental disorders. The book with a listing of resources in the neuroscience of language and aglossary of items and concepts to help the novice become acquaintedwith the field. Editors Stemmer & Whitaker prepared this book to reflect recent developments in neurolinguistics, moving thebook squarely into the cognitive neuroscience of language and capturingthe developments in the field over the past 7 years. * History section focuses on topics that play a current role in neurolinguistics research, aphasia syndromes, and esion analysis * Includes section on neuroimaging to reflect the dramatic changes in methodology over the past decade * Experimental and clinical section reflects recent developments in the field Audience Researchers and clinicians in neuropsychology, neuro- and psycholinguistics.
