Psychology Press - Neuroimaging of Mental Imagery Book

Explore the complex science behind how the human brain processes mental images with this special issue of the European Journal of Cognitive Psychology. Published by Psychology Press, this collection addresses one of the earliest and most sustained areas of neuroimaging research. For decades, cognitive psychologists and neuroscientists have worked to understand the elusive phenomenon of mental imagery. This volume examines the fundamental questions that drive modern research, such as identifying which specific parts of the human brain become active when a person generates a memory image of an absent object. This text serves as a significant resource for those studying neurology and clinical neurophysiology. It provides a deep look into the empirical investigations that have shaped our current understanding of cognitive processes. Whether you are a researcher or a student in the medical and healthcare fields, this work offers a detailed perspective on the sustained research programs dedicated to understanding how we visualize the world in our minds.
