Bold is not the act of foolishness but the attribute and inner strength to act when others will not so as to move forward not backward.

ISBN10: 3030551512, ISBN13: 9783030551513, [publisher: Springer International Publishing] Hardcover Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This open access volume reveals the hidden power of the script we read in and how it shapes and drives our minds, ways of thinking, and cultures.Expanding on the Linguistic Relativity Hypothesis (i.e., the idea that language affects the way we think), this volume proposes the 'Script Relativity Hypothesis'(i.e., the idea that the script in which we read affects the way we think) by offering a unique perspective on the effect of script (alphabets, morphosyllabaries, or multi-scripts) on our attention, perception, and problem-solving.Once we become literate, fundamental changes occur in our brain circuitry to accommodate the new demand for resources.The powerful effects of literacy have been demonstrated by research on literate versus illiterate individuals, as well as cross-scriptal transfer, indicating that literate brain networks function differently, depending on the script being read.This book identifies the locus of differences between the Chinese, Japanese, and Koreans, and between the East and the West, as the neural underpinnings of literacy. To supportthe 'Script Relativity Hypothesis', it reviews a vast corpus of empirical studies, including anthropological accounts of human civilization, social psychology, cognitive psychology, neuropsychology, applied linguistics, second language studies ...
