I am an expert on the topic of synaesthesia and I learned a great deal!' Peter Grossenbacher, Director, Consciousness Laboratory, Naropa University, Boulder, Colorado 'This unassuming book is only understated on the outside; packed between the covers is a wealth of information, both compilations of previous research and new findings. Aleksandra Maria Rogowska ambitiously sets out to blaze new paths into many different aspects of individual differences as they relate to synesthesia ... the book is exhaustively researched and provides a lucid and useful review of each of the variables under examination and the tests used to measure them. As such, it is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in individual differences, as it frames synesthesia as a trait co-occurring with a variety of other measures.'

Jennifer Mankin, Perception 'The scope of Rogowska's book is expansive, and I can certainly see researchers from many fields gaining insight from this book. It is not always evident how accessible the material will be for nonspecialists, but overall, Rogowska has made a convincing case for the need to investigate synaesthesia's connection to personality, temperament, and other individual characteristics.'
