MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK

Main description:

Multisensory Perception: From Laboratory to Clinic surveys the current state of knowledge on multisensory processes, synthesizing information from diverse streams of research and defining hypotheses and questions to direct future work. Reflecting the nature of the field, the book is interdisciplinary, comprising the findings and views of writers with diverse backgrounds and varied methods, including psychophysical, neuroanatomical, neurophysiological and neuroimaging approaches. Sections cover basic principles, specific interactions between the senses, the topic of crossmodal correspondences between particular sensory attributes, the related topic of synesthesia, and the clinic.


Contents:

SECTION I: FOUNDATIONS OF MULTISENSORY PERCEPTION 1. Bouba-Kiki: Cross-domain resonance and the origins of synesthesia, metaphor, and words in the human mind 2. Philosophical insights 3. Neural development of multisensory integration 4. The development of multisensory processes for perceiving the environment and the self 5. Computational models of multisensory integration 6.
