Imagery, Language and Visuo-Spatial Thinking - Current Issues in Thinking and Reasoning
Michel Denis
Discusses the reamarkable human ability to use mental imagery in everyday life: from helping plan actions and routes to aiding creative thinking.
Marc Notes: Bibl. ref. & index; Sim. publ. in US and Canada by Taylor & Francis. Publisher Marketing: This authoritative volume offers a statement of current thinking in the field of imagery. Visual imagery and visuo-spatial memory play key roles in the higher cognitive functions of mental representation, creative thinking, and planning complex actions, as well as contributing to differences in mental ability. In this work, researchers discuss the theory and empirical endeavours that are driving these research areas, while addressing key aspects of the properties and functions of imagery as basic components of human visuo-spatial thinking. The book is intended to be of interest to advanced undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers in cognitive psychology, cognitive science and cognitive neuropsychology. Review Citations:
