PERCEPTION and ACTION

Although the following article is pretty old it forms a useful conceptual framework for us to get started:

• Harris LR (1994) Visual motion caused by movements of the eye, head and body. in Visual Detection of Motion. Smith AT, Snowden R (Eds). Academic Press, London pp 397-436
• Link to Kathy Cullen's paper on vestibular responses to active/passive movement.
  

From Principles of Neural Science (5th edition)

• Ch 16 The functional organization of Perception and Movement
• Ch 17 From Nerve Cells to Cognition: The internal representation of Space and Action
• Ch 40 The vestibular system

• Trends in Cognitive Sciences (2010) 14: issue 12
• especially "A manifold of spatial maps in the brain" TICS (2010) 14: 561-569
• Human Spatial Navigation ((2018) Ekstrom, Spiers, Bohbot, Rosenbaum)

For those of you relatively new to the area, you might be interested in looking at my notes for my undergraduate courses, Sensation and Perception parts I and II.  Especially the course notes for part I. Or taking a look at an intro Sensation and Perception textbook.
