Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Ways of seeing is a book about human vision. It results from the collaboration between a world famous cognitive neuroscientist and an eminent philosopher. In the past forty years, cognitive neuroscience has made many startling discoveries about the human brain, and about the human visual system in particular. This book brings many recent empirical findings, from electrophysiological recordings in animals, the neuropsychological examination of humanpatients, psychophysics, and developmental cognitive psychology, to bear on questions traditionally addressed by philosophers. What is the meaning of the English verb 'to see'? How does visual perception yieldknowledge of the world? How does visual perception relate to thought? What is the role of conscious visual experience in visually guided actions? How does seeing actions relate to seeing objects? In the process the book provides a new assessment of the 'two visual systems' hypothesis, according to which the human visual system comprises two anatomical pathways with separable visual functions. The first truly interdisciplinary book about human vision, it will be of interest to students andresearchers in many areas of cognitive science and the philosophy of mind. Ways of Seeing is a collaboration between an eminent philosopher and a world famous neuroscientist. It focuses on one of the most basic human functions - vision. It brings together electrophysiological studies, neuropsychology, psychophysics, cognitive psychology, and philosophy of mind.
