How does knowledge of the body in space relate to an understanding
of space itself? Spatial cognition is discussed from two closely
related perspectives: the internal mapping of external stimuli
(e.g., landmarks and sensory perception of environmental
information) and the internal mapping of internally perceived
stimuli (e.g., kinesthetic and visual imagery), and their
subsequent effects on behaviour. Clarification of what spatial
information is present in most perceptual processes and how this is
used cognitively in relation to the self in space is then
established. Major points and controversies of the various models
are discussed, along with evolutionary perspectives of spatial
perception and object recognition and comparisons between human and
non-human spatial cognitive abilities and behaviours. Written for
postgraduate students and researchers, the authors present
theoretical and experimental accounts at multiple levels of
analysis - perceptual, behavioural and cognitive - providing a
thorough review of the mechanisms of spatial cognition.
