This two-volume set provides a comprehensive overview of the
multidisciplinary field of Embodied Cognition. With contributions
from internationally acknowledged researchers from a variety of
fields, Foundations of Embodied Cognition reveals how intelligent
behaviour emerges from the interplay between brain, body and
environment. Covering early research and emerging trends in
embodied cognition, Volume 1 Perceptual and Emotional Embodiment is
divided into four distinct parts, bringing together a number of
influential perspectives and new ideas. Part one opens the volume
with an overview of theoretical perspectives and the neural basis
of embodiment, before part two considers body representation and
its links with action. Part three examines how actions constrain
perception of the environment, and part four explores how emotions
can be shaped and structured by the body and its activity. Building
on the idea that knowledge acquisition, retention and retrieval are
intimately interconnected with sensory and motor processes,
Foundations of Embodied Cognition is a landmark publication in the
field. It will be of great interest to researchers and advanced
students from across the cognitive sciences, including those
specialising in psychology, neuroscience, intelligent systems and
robotics, philosophy, linguistics and anthropology.
