Bringing together neural, perceptual, and behavioral studies, The Merging of theSenses provides the first detailed review of how the brain assembles information from differentsensory systems in order to produce a coherent view of the external world. Stein and Meredithmarshall evidence from a broad array of species to show that interactions among senses are the mostancient scheme of sensory organization, an integrative system reflecting a general plan thatsupersedes structure and species. Most importantly, they explore what is known about the neuralprocesses by which interactions among the senses take place at the level of the single cell.Theauthors draw on their own experiments to illustrate how sensory inputs converge (from visual,auditory, and somatosensory modalities, for instance) on individual neurons in different areas ofthe brain, how these neurons integrate their inputs, the principles by which this integrationoccurs, and what this may mean for perception and behavior. Neurons in the superior colliculus andcortex are emphasized as models of multiple sensory integrators.Barry E. Stein is Professor ofPhysiology and M.
