The hippocampal and parietal foundations of spatial cognition
by N. Burgess
- 1 Want to read
"The hippocampus and the parietal cortex have been implicated in various core spatial behaviours, such as the ability to localize an object and navigate to it. Damage to these areas in humans and animals leads to impairment of these spatial functions. This collection of papers, written by internationally recognized experts in the field, reviews the evidence that each area is involved in spatial cognition, examines the mechanisms underlying the generation of spatial behaviours, and considers the relative roles of the parietal and hippocampal areas, including how each interacts with the other." "It should be of interest to anyone - researchers or graduate students - working in the areas of cognitive neuroscience, neuroanatomy, neuropsychology, and cognition generally."--Jacket.
