A Note on the Organization of Fluent Speech in a Semantic Kind of Amnestic Aphasia

Luria, A. R.

A thirty-year case study of a Russian soldier suffering from a severe syndrome of parietal aphasia is discussed. Luria's book, "The Man with a Shattered World," is based on the soldier's 3,000-page diary, written after a period of training wherein he was told to write as fast as possible. (SCC)
