Description
This collection of readings explores synaesthesia, a neurological condition in which one sensory experience triggers another. Synaesthetic experiences, such as seeing colours when hearing sounds, are examined through chapters by leading authorities in the field.
Recent advances in cognitive neuroscientific research into synaesthesia have raised new questions and debates about this fascinating condition. This volume brings together a range of perspectives on synaesthesia, providing insight into its nature and implications.
Written by John E. Harrison and Simon Baron-Cohen, with contributions from other experts in the field, Synaesthesia offers a comprehensive overview of this intriguing topic.
