Book Description:
|
The subject of attentional mechanisms has a long history in cognitive psychology, as it is the key to making sense of the visual world. However, new developments in cognitive neuroscience, and greater understanding of how attention and action are integrated, have transformed the field. This book is the first to bring together leading researchers from psychology, neuropsychology, neurophysiology, and neuroanatomy to discuss the convergence of experimental findings in this important area.
