The Broca-Wernicke model is wrong but still used

The dominant neurobiological model of language—localizing production to Broca's area, comprehension to Wernicke's area, connected by the arcuate fasciculus—has persisted essentially unchanged since the 1860s, is empirically wrong (patients with given lesions do not show the predicted syndromes and brain wiring is far more complex), yet is still the model most neurologists reference today.
