Course details

It may not seem obvious at first, but the language we speak can greatly affect our thoughts, feelings, and actions. Psycholinguistics is the scientific study of the interaction between mind and language, and in this audiobook summary, psycholinguist Viorica Marian explores the many ways that the words we learn impact our lives. Join Viorica to hear five key insights from her book The Power of Language: How the Codes We Use to Think, Speak, and Live Transform Our Minds. Viorica draws on cutting-edge research to show how language can be used to improve our cognitive abilities, boost our creativity, and even protect our brains from aging.
