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 editora (TM)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 Berhoza (TM) contribution focusing on the hippocampus and
its role in navigation. All contributions are strongly related to
at least three other contributions.
