Book Synopsis

Attention has long been recognized as a central topic in human psychology. And, in an increasingly connected' world, understanding our attentional networksin particular, their role in the selection of information, the maintenance of alertness and self-control, and the management of emotionsis, arguably, more important than ever.

As research in and around the psychology of attention continues to flourish, this new four-volume collection from Routledge meets the need for an authoritative reference work to make sense of a complex body of research. The materials gathered in Volume I include explorations of the limits of attention and early empirical work on methods to probe brain activity. The major works collected in the second volume examine critical theories that allow computer programs to simulate and predict how attention operates, while Volume III is organized around the use of brain imaging, cellular recording, and optogenetics to delineate how the brain carries out
