life-course, normal aging and disease processes (e.g. dementia, stroke) can
constrain cognition, language and motor function to different degrees. In a
sense, these abilities that were so well synchronized early in life become
dissociated.
There are formidable scientific and clinical boundaries around different
domains of development in childhood. Iverson has successfully penetrated
the boundaries around the study of motor and language development
in infancy. In doing so, she has provided us with an enriched account of
developing language in a developing body.
