Multisensory processes are at play in almost everything we do. It has taken mainstream psychologists (developmental and otherwise) some time to appreciate this fact, and we still think that more needs to be done in order to integrate our understanding of multisensory perceptual functioning into the developmental literature. Recently, however, there has been dramatic progress in our understanding of multisensory development, as witnessed by the rich set of contributions in this volume. As is often the case, the more we learn about multisensory development, the more complex the picture becomes and the more questions are raised. Nonetheless it is our conviction (and we hope that, after reading this book, you will agree with us) that a full picture of perceptual, cognitive, and social development will only emerge once we consider the fact that all of these processes depend crucially on multisensory interactions. We hope that this volume goes some way toward documenting this fact and, even more importantly, that it spurs the next generation of researchers to plunge head on into the complex world of multisensory interaction, for ultimately it is at this level of organization that accurate explanations of behaviour lie.
