The issue presents a selection of approaches to the cognitive neuroscience ofsemantic processing. The term 'semantics¿ covers a range of approaches: perception-based conceptual structures, the impact of concepts such as animacy on syntactically determined meaning, the unification of incoming information in the construction of a discourse model, and the neural correlates of formal operations of sentence-level semantic composition. The issue provides a platform inwhich the diversity of approaches can be seen in context and compared. The aim of the issue is to delineate pathways along which a well-circumscribed area of research in semantic processing could be pursued.
