Reviews

"""The editors of this volume are uniquely positioned, by virtue of their own complementary expertise and strong reputations, to bring together this critical group of researchers who represent the best that cognitive science has to offer on these issues. The result is certainly a book that I would like to have on my shelf."" -- James T. Enns, University of British Columbia ""Eye movements provide a fascinating source of information about mental processes, for example those involved in scene perception and reading. Recently, there has been a huge growth in the use of eye movements to investigate the integration of linguistic and visual information. This book gives a thorough overview of this rapidly developing area, and includes chapters by many leading researchers in language production, language comprehension, and visual cognition. It should prove to be a standard reference for a very long time."" -- Martin J. Pickering, University of Edinburgh"
