The range of approaches is impressive, and should lead every neuroscientist to appreciate the multisensory nature of our brains. Biologically inspired computational modeling of the processes for integrating sensory data is widely seen as essential for both understanding complex neuroscientific data and constructing smarter artificial systems.
The comprehensive accounts of the physiological, psychological, developmental, and functional processes associated with multisensory integration presented in this handbook will provide much of the 'biological inspiration' for future models in this area. This volume is a monumental achievement! Essentially reading for anyone with an interest in this important field of the behavioral and neural sciences. Search Search.

He has done a first-rate job in bringing together leading researchers who have contributed chapters of exceptional clarity that will undoubtedly provide an impetus for future research for many years to come. This is a volume that everyone, even those with a tangential interest in multisensory integration, should have on his or her bookshelf. Over the past 30 years, Barry Stein has almost single handedly established, nourished, and let flourish the field of multisensory integration.
Now, we can read all in one place the fruits of his efforts. This book is a feast of authoritative articles on mechanisms that underlies this crucial aspect of brain organization.
The chapters in each of the eleven sections of this book describe a host of interesting research programs. Even better, these are tied together by the integrative commentaries that introduce each section. This single volume touches on almost any topic you might want to investigate in the growing world of multisensory research.
