"The research presented in this volume demonstrates that it is no longer reasonable to ask whether synesthesia is real - we must now ask how we can account for it from cognitive, neurobiological, developmental, and evolutionary perspectives. Furthermore, it becomes clear that the study of synesthesia touches on every major aspect of cognition - perception, attention, memory, language, development, emotion, and consciousness. Consequently, this volume will be an important resource for scientists interested in brain and mind, synesthetes themselves, and everyone who wonders what all the fuss is about."--Jacket.
