Mental Images in Human Cognition, edited by Robert H. Logie and Michel Denis, examines the role of mental imagery in human cognition. This volume brings together research on how mental images are generated, manipulated, and utilized in a variety of cognitive processes, including memory, problem-solving, and perception. The book explores theoretical perspectives on the nature of mental images, empirical findings on their function, and their implications for understanding cognitive architecture. Topics covered include the relationship between visual and spatial imagery, the role of mental images in reasoning and decision-making, and the cognitive mechanisms underlying the ability to create and manipulate images in the mind’s eye. This book is an essential resource for researchers and students in cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and related fields, providing valuable insights into the processes of mental imagery and its role in cognition.
