Spatial Processing in Navigation, Imagery and Perception

,

The processing of spatial information is an increasingly important topic with new findings emerging from several disciplines especially within the last few years. These disciplines are cognitive neuroscience, cognitive psychology, sensorimotor integration, neuropsychology and neuroanatomy. The aim of this book is to bring together a group of internationally highly renowned researchers from these disciplines. The book serves as a state-of-the-art platform, on which the very latest developments in spatial processing are presented. It will be useful for clinicians, experimental scientists, and graduate students. With respect to the teaching aspect, the editor’s judgment is based on long-term experience in teaching cognitive neuroscience, cognitive psychology, and neurophysiology.

The mechanisms that underlie the processing of spatial information are explored in human and animal research without much crosstalk across disciplines. The reader of the book will learn to see several connections across disciplines. For example, a contribution on mental imagery by Stephen Kosslyn, which is highly related to studies with neglect patients (Pizzamiglio) who are unable to appropriately imagine their environment. Several contributions will then tie in knowledge from basic neuroscience such as Berhoz’ contribution focusing on the hippocampus and its role in navigation. All contributions are strongly related to at least three other contributions.
