Perception covers functional aspects of normal and abnormal perception and its underlying processes, whether from a psychophysical, neuroscience, developmental, comparative or applied perspective. It welcomes articles on all the sensory modalities, on multimodal and cross-modal studies, and empirical studies related to sensory-motor relations, perception in the arts, and conscious vs unconscious aspects of perception. Controversy, speculation and wit have always had a place in its editorial and ‘Short and sweet’ sections, in the spirit of its founding editor, Richard Gregory.
