Springer Sensory Perception: Mind and Matter

Sensory perception: mind and matter brings together the neurosciences with psychology and philosophy thereby meeting the demand of an interdisciplinary discourse between those fields of interest in order to understand the many facets of sensory perception and their relation to brain functions and cognition. It gives an interdisciplinary insight into the understanding of neurobiology and sensory processing in animals and humans with leading experts contributing to this discourse. Review From the reviews: “This book explores the current research on sensory perception and links between animal and human studies. … The obvious audience is neuroscientists, but it certainly also includes those in a variety of disciplines, including psychology and neuropsychology, as well as psychiatry, neurology, and philosophy given the final section of the book. … there are colorful, good quality illustrations, as well as diagrams, charts, and models throughout. The references are generally up to date, but also include relevant seminal contributions.” (Christopher J. Graver, Doody’s Review Service, December, 2012)
