The Neurobiology of Rapid Time Perception

The representation of temporal information remains one of the most elusive concepts for neurobiology. Unlike vision and audition, there are no dedicated sensors for time, yet the percept of time is salient in adult life. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the most exciting, late-breaking data in the understanding of the passage of time and how it is represented in the brain, contributed by a pioneering panel of experts in the field. Bringing together recent advances in diverse neuroscience areas will encourage the development of new treatments of cerebellar-related disorders such as ataxia, dyslexia, autism, and more.
