Publisher Description: his collection brings together the major papers in the field of Perception, covering all five sensory modalities. This is a rich area, both in terms of the history and breadth of the subject. The articles included range from recent influential reviews to introduce an area and historical and classic material to leading-edge recent work which may challenge accepted practice. The aim is to provide a feel for the dynamism of the field - often illustrated by major debates between various positions. Perception begins with an introduction by the editors. The introductory chapter serves as a navigation guide through the rest of the collection, and summarizes the major debates and advances from what was, initially, a topic within philosophy through to the present neuro-scientific basis of the field.
