Cortex. 1978 Mar;14(1):129-33. doi: 10.1016/s0010-9452(78)80016-1.

Abstract

Two patients showing left unilateral neglect were asked to describe imagined perspectives of familiar surroundings. Left-sided details were largely omitted in the descriptions. Some theoretical implications of the occurrence of unilateral neglect in representational space are briefly considered.
