Contributors identified only by name, presumably linguists, synthesize current views, theories, and data on lexical representation with an emphasis on the work of William Marslen-Wilson. Among their topics are semantic constraints on morphological processing, discrete and discreet mental representations, connectionist perspectives, evidence from brain imaging on brain structures underlying the lexical processing of speech, and the neuronal infrastructure for unification at multiple levels.
