Broca's area is not a natural kind
E Fedorenko, IA Blank - Trends in cognitive sciences, 2020 - cell.com
Theories of human cognition prominently feature'Broca's area', which causally contributes to
a myriad of mental functions. However, Broca's area is not a monolithic, multipurpose unit–it …

The language network as a natural kind within the broader landscape of the human brain
Abstract Language behaviour is complex, but neuroscientific evidence disentangles it into
distinct components supported by dedicated brain areas or networks. In this Review, we …
