Localization generally refers to associating functions of specific brain areas as if they are specialized modules. While the below links provide helpful information, it is a mistake to see brain areas strictly in isolation. Neuroscience has discovered that although certain brain areas may be specialized for specific activities, every area of the brain is intricately connected to other brain regions and the body as a whole. Building theories of brain function as if people or their brains exist in isolation is also a mistake. We cannot simply be separated from our environments.Â
