Our experience of the world is influenced by numerous spatial biases, most of which influence us without our being aware of them.

These biases are related to illusions and asymmetries in our perception of space, relationships between space and other qualities, dynamics of moving objects, dynamics of scene configuration, and dynamics related to perception and action.

Consideration of these biases provides insight into how we perceive, remember, and navigate space, as well as how we interact with objects and people in space.

This volume introduces and reviews numerous spatial biases, and provides descriptions and examples of each bias.

The contributors discuss historical and current theories for many biases, and for some biases, provide new explanatory theories.

Providing a ''one-stop shop'' for information on such a key aspect of our experience in the world, this volume will interest anyone curious about our understanding of space.
