The human conceptual system contains knowledge that supports all cognitive activities, including percep-tion, memory, language and thought. According to most current theories, states in modality-specific systems for perception, action and emotion do not represent knowledge – rather, redescriptions of these states in amodal representational languages do. Increas-ingly, however, researchers report that re-enactments of states in modality-specific systems underlie concep-tual processing. In behavioral experiments, perceptual and motor variables consistently produce effects in con-ceptual tasks. In brain imaging experiments, conceptual processing consistently activates modality-specific brain areas. Theoretical research shows how modality-speci...
