In Gareth Evans’s terms, the fundamental ground of difference that individuates our bodies is the very same fundamental ground of difference that individuates any other concrete object: namely, its position in space and time. An intuition-friendly way of thinking of this is as a division between ways of perceiving our bodies “from the inside” and “from the outside.” Even heavily edited to deal with the glitches, a purely spatial criterion seems unpromising: given that our bodies are by and large topological donut-shaped figures, any way of drawing the boundaries between inside and outside is bound to seem a little arbitrary. Personal-level recognition of identity of body(-part) perceived both interoceptively and exteroceptively is made possible by subpersonal binding of cues from both forms of perception grounded on recognised co-location at a time of body(-part) perceived both ways at once.

Traditional conceptions of peripersonal space emphasised its role in the organisation of skilled action. However, two other aspects of this representation have also been highlighted, namely, its defensive and social aspects. Indeed, having a distinct representation of the space close to the body is crucial for preparing defensive responses to noxious or threatening stimuli. Furthermore, it has been shown that peripersonal space is modulated by social factors. In this chapter, we will discuss these differing conceptions of peripersonal space. Evidence from several lines of research has revealed specialised neural and perceptual mechanisms for representing the space around the body for the defense of the body surface, including ethological and neurophysiological studies in animals, psychophysical studies showing perceptual mechanisms specialised for threatening classes of stimuli, and modulation of perception by specific fears. We will review studies on the motor function of peripersonal space and its role in guiding voluntary object-oriented actions. Recent studies have investigated the neural basis of the social aspect of peripersonal space both in monkey and humans. Finally, we will end by discussing the connection between action-based, defensive and social functions of peripersonal space.
