What is the body schema? / The space of the body schema: putting the schema in movement / Body schema dynamics in Merleau-Ponty / A radical phenomenology of the body: subjectivity and sensatoins in body image and body schema / Body schema and body image in motor learning: refining Merleau-Ponty's notion of body schema / Reimagining the body image / The body in the German neurology of the early twentieth century / Plasticity and tool use in the body schema / Triadic body representations in the human cerebral cortex and peripheral nerves / Body models in humans, animals, and robots: mechanisms and plasticity / From implicit to explicit body awareness in the first two years of life / Cross-referenced body and action for the unified self: empirical developmental, and clinical perspectives / Growing up a self: on the relation between body image and the experience of the interoceptive body / The embodied and social self: insights on body image and body schema from neurological conditions / Body schema and pain / Feeling of a presence and anomalous body perception / The body image-body schema/ownership-agency model for pathologies: four case studies / Frederique de Vignemont, Victor Pitron, and Adrian J. T. Alsmith -- David Morris -- Jan Halak -- Helena De Preester -- Shogo Tanaka -- Shaun Gallagher -- Andreas Kalckert -- Daniele Romano and Angelo Maravita -- Noriaki Kanayama and Kentaro Hiromitsu -- Matej Hoffman -- Philippe Rochat and Sara Valencia Botto -- Shu Imaizumi, Tomohisa Asai, and Michiko Miyazaki -- Rosie Dysdale and Manos Tsakiris -- Jonathan Cole -- Laurence Have, Anne-Emmanuelle Priot, Laure Pisella, Gilles Rode, and Yves Rossetti -- Jasmine Ho and Bigna Lenggenhager -- Katsunori Miyahara -- Masayuki Hara, Olaf Blanke, and Noriaki Kanayama -- Aviya Ben David and Yochai Ataria. Part I: theoretical clarification: body schema and body image -- 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Part II: brain, body, and self -- 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. Part III: disorders, anomalies, and therapies -- 14. 15. Unilateral body neglect: schemas versus images? / 16. Neural underpinnings of body image and body schema disturbances / 17. 19. 20.
Body schema is a system of sensory-motor capacities that function without awareness or the necessity of perceptual monitoring. Body image consists of a system of perceptions, attitudes, and beliefs pertaining to one's own body. In 2005 Shaun Gallagher published an influential book entitled How the Body Shapes the Mind (OUP). That book not only defined both body schema and body image, but explored the complicated relationship between the two. It also established the idea that there is a double dissociation, whereby body schema and body image refer to two different but closely related systems. Given that many kinds of pathological cases can be described in terms of body schema and body image (phantom limbs, asomatognosia, apraxia, schizophrenia, anorexia, depersonalization, and body dysmorphic disorder, among others), we might expect to find a growing consensus about these concepts and the relevant neural activities connected to these systems. Instead, an examination of the scientific literature reveals continued ambiguity and disagreement. This volume brings together leading experts from the fields of philosophy, neuroscience, psychology, and psychiatry in a lively and productive dialogue. It explores fundamental questions about the relationship between body schema and body image, and addresses ongoing debates about the role of the brain and the role of social and cultural factors in our understanding of embodiment.--
