Summary:

Introducing groundbreaking original research and reviews, this indispensible reference provides a current review of the state-of-the-field focusing on the neural bases that form the foundation of multisensory processes. Accessible to a multidisciplinary scientific audience as well as non-specialists, this comprehensive overview is divided into seven sections, including combinatorial principles and modeling, anatomy, learning, plasticity, development and aging, clinical manifestations, and attention and spatial representations. It addresses the movement toward more naturalistic multisensory processes and includes translational perspectives across multiple species and methodologies-- Provided by publisher.
