The parietal lobe /

The first book on the parietal lobe since Macdonald Critchley's classic work in 1953, this volume is a definitive account of the latest findings and concepts on parietal lobe function. Leading authorities in the field present detailed reviews of recent clinical, experimental, and neuroimaging s...
