The integration of multisensory information is an essential mechanism in perception and in controlling actions. Research in multisensory integration is concerned with how the information from the different sensory modalities, such as the senses of vision, hearing, smell, taste, touch, and proprioception, are integrated to a coherent representation of objects. Multisensory integration is central for action control. For instance, when you grasp for a rubber duck, you can see its size and hear the sound it produces. Moreover, identical physical properties of an object can be provided by different senses. You can both see and feel the size of the rubber duck. Even when you grasp for the rubber duck with a tool (e.g. with tongs), the information from the hand, from the effect points of the tool and from the eyes are integrated in a manner to act successfully. Over the recent decade a surge of interest in multisensory integration and action control has been witnessed, especially in connection with the idea that multiple sensory sources are integrated in an optimized way. For this perspective to mature, it will be helpful to delve deeper into the information processing mechanisms and their neural correlates, asking about the range and constraints of this mechanisms, about its localization and involved networks.

Analysen der Wortstellung des Deutschen betrachten oft die Informationsstruktur als genuin syntaktischen Faktor: Funktionale Projektionen (Topik- oder Antifokusphrasen) oder ähnliche grammatische Annahmen sollen erklären, warum sich bestimmte Satzbestandteile in bestimmten Kontexten auf verschiedene Art und Weise anordnen. Die Zirkularität einer solchen Erklärung wurde dabei lange Zeit ebenso ignoriert wie ihre empirischen Probleme.Rigide Vorhersagen der Wortstellung aus Diskursfaktoren sind für das Deutsche, wie dieses Buch zeigt, empirisch nicht haltbar. Es lässt sich im Gegenteil zeigen, dass es prosodische, semantische und in Teilen auch formal-syntaktische Faktoren sind, die die Wortstellung des Deutschen empirisch korrekt und konzeptuell attraktiv zu beschreiben gestatten.Eine syntaktische Repräsentation der Informationsstruktur wird daher – entgegen einer jahrzehntelangen Forschungstradition – in der vorliegenden Analyse abgelehnt. An ihrer Stelle wird eine komplexe Grammatikarchitektur entworfen, die die syntaktischen, semantischen und prosodischen Faktoren der deutschen Wortstellung kohärent darstellt und auf neuartige Weise zueinander in Beziehung setzt.

In 1988, Jerry Fodor and Zenon Pylyshyn challenged connectionist theorists to explain the systematicity of cognition. In a highly influential critical analysis of connectionism, they argued that connectionist explanations, at best, can only inform us about details of the neural substrate; explanations at the cognitive level must be classical insofar as adult human cognition is essentially systematic. This volume reassesses Fodor and Pylyshyn's 'systematicity challenge' for a post-connectionist era, covering the most important recent developments in the systematicity debate.
