*Sensory Individuals: Unimodal and Multimodal Perspectives*
<https://global.oup.com/academic/product/sensory-individuals-9780198866305?q=sensory%20individuals&lang=en&cc=gb>
provides an interdisciplinary and comprehensive look at different aspects
of *unisensory and multisensory objects*, using both nuanced philosophical
analysis and informed empirical work.


The research presented in this book represents the field's progression from
treating neural sensory processes as primarily modality-specific towards
its current state of the art, according to which perception, and its
supporting neural processes, are modality-independent, meta-modal,
multi-modal, and task-dependent. Even within such approaches sensory
stimuli, properties, brain activations, and corresponding perceptual
phenomenology can still be characterized in a modality-specific way. The
book examines the basic building blocks of human perception, and whether
they are best understood as sensory modality dependent units of different
forms or multimodal perceptual objects.
