"This book gives us a readable and comprehensive overview of a fast-developing interdisciplinary field. An excellent introduction for beginners, a welcome refresher for working scientists."-Nora S. Newcombe, Laura H. Carnell Professor of Psychology and James H. Glackin Distinguished Faculty Fellow, Temple University, USA
"This book is a timely addition to the literature on spatial and environmental cognition and experience. In this era of nearly unbridled enthusiasm for what neuroscience can reveal, Toru's book reminds us that mind and behavior are not just in the brain, but in the brain and nervous system in the body in the physical and sociocultural world."-Daniel R. Montello, Professor of Geography, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA
"Toru Ishikawa presents an excellently written and concise account of research done on human spatial cognition. The book covers a full range of topics including motivation and history through methodological issues, empirical results to applications, and societal implications. A great introduction to the fascinating field of spatial cognition. The book should be read by everyone interested to understand how we know where we are."-Christian Freksa, Professor for informatics and director of the Bremen Spatial Cognition Center, University of Bremen, Germany
