Many organisms possess multiple sensory systems, such as vision,
hearing, touch, smell, and taste. The possession of such multiple
ways of sensing the world offers many benefits. These benefits
arise not only because each modality can sense different aspects of
the environment, but also because different senses can respond
jointly to the same external object or event, thus enriching the
overall experience-for example, looking at an individual while
listening to them speak. However, combining the information from
different senses also poses many challenges for the nervous system.
In recent years, there has been dramatic progress in understanding
how information from different sensory modalities gets integrated
in order to construct useful representations of external space; and
in how such multimodal representations constrain spatial attention.
Such progress has involved numerous different disciplines,
including neurophysiology, experimental psychology, neurological
work with brain-damaged patients, neuroimaging studies, and
computational modelling. This volume brings together the leading
researchers from all these approaches, to present the first
integrative overview of this central topic in cognitive
neuroscience.
