Recenzii
"A scholarly work, a go-to reference for several topics in imagery, spatial cognition, visuospatial working memory, and mental models. ... It is rare to have a comprehensive overview of so many of these topics collected into a single volume, and there is plenty new here. Worthy of the exemplary scientist it honors." - Nancy Franklin, Stony Brook University, US, in PsycCRITIQUES
"This book presents a diverse set of chapters, providing a wide ranging review of current issues in visuo-spatial cogniton. It is refreshing to find such a range of material presented together, and I am sure this strategy will continue to foster debate and discussion of these important issues. The book provides both a survey of recent and not so recent research, as well as recounting a particular route taken through a range of topics by Denis and co-workers. It is invaluable reading both for those with a clear sense of direction, as well as those who prefer a more meandering course through a range of related topics, gaining inspiration along the way." - Kevin Dent, Department of Psychology, University of Essex, UK
"This timely edited collection is a joy to read. The chapters are approachable and clearly written, and cover every major area of the field of mental imagery and its place in cognition." - Trevor Harley, School of Psychology, University of Dundee, UK
"Overall, this book is something of a curate's egg. In some respects it seems like a very niche collection, and yet it actually represents a very broad array of ideas. ... Denis has been instrumental in showing how imagery, spatial cognition and language are interrelated processes, and there are many groups currently exploring these ideas. ... This book represents an important collection of ideas that may help scientists to draw their own paths to places that they had previously feared to tread." - Alastair D. Smith, Perception, Vol. 42
