Defining the Self: The Orientation Association Area

The orientation association area, situated at the posterior section of the parietal lobe, receives sensory input from the sense of touch, as well as from other sensory modalities, especially vision and hearing. These give it the ability to create a three-dimensional sense of "body" and to orient tha ...
