Afferent isn't efferent, and language isn't logic, either
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 30 January 2004
Abstract:
Hurford's argument suffers from two major weaknesses. First, his account of neural mechanisms suggests no place in the brain where the two halves of a predicate-argument structure could come together. Second, his assumption that language and cognition must be based on logic is neither necessary nor particularly plausible, and leads him to some unlikely conclusions.
