Abstract
In this chapter, we provide a historical and a contemporary overview of the hearing brain. We will review how various brain-imaging methods are employed to study how sounds and meanings are represented in the brain. These studies have provided the foundation from which network models of the brain are built. We will conclude with a discussion of the practical aspects of the neuroscience of language, such as how it will further our understanding of the brain and lead to clinical applications.
