Abstract:

Gestures are ubiquitous and natural in our everyday life. They convey 
information about culture, discourse, thought, intentionality, emotion, 
intersubjectivity, cognition, and first and second language acquisition. 
Additionally, they are used by non-human primates to communicate with their 
peers and with humans. 

Consequently, the modern field of gesture studies has attracted researchers 
from a number of different disciplines such as anthropology, cognitive 
science, communication, neuroscience, psycholinguistics, primatology, 
psychology, robotics, sociology and semiotics. This volume presents an 
overview of the depth and breadth of current research in gesture. Its focus is 
on the interdisciplinary nature of gesture. The twenty-six chapters included in 
the volume are divided into six sections or themes: the nature and functions 
of gesture, first language development and gesture, second language effects 
on gesture, gesture in the classroom and in problem solving, gesture aspects 
of discourse and interaction, and gestural analysis of music and dance.
