Description and Table of Contents
Description
An overview of current thinking in parietal lobe functions. The text is divided into five sections dealing with the areas of functional anatomy and specific contributions of the parietal lobes to eye movements; reaching and grasping; attention and perception; and the representation of space. It includes recent findings that emphasize their general implications for an understanding of the role of parietal lobe processing. The book aims to unite neurophysiological and neuropsychological approaches. It reviews work based on monkeys and on the study of patients with parietal lobe lesions. The interrelationship of the two is discussed.
