Book Synopsis Common Mechanisms in Perception and Action by : Wolfgang Prinz
Book excerpt: This volume focuses on a subject at the heart of psychological research into human performance--the interplay between perception and action. What are the mechanisms that translate the information we receive via our senses into physical actions? How do the mechanisms responsible for producing a response from a given stimulus operate? Within this volume, state of the art and cutting edge research from leading scientists in cognitive psychology and cognitive neuroscience is presented describing the approaches being taken to understanding the mechanisms that allow us to negotiate and respond to the world around us.
