Synopsis
Although the mechanics of how the eye works are well understood, debate still exists as to how the complex machinery of the brain interprets neural impulses supplied by the eye. In an attempt to understand the evolutionary origins and functions of the visual system, the authors pose the question "What is the function of vision?" Topics covered include: visual processing in the primate, disorders of visual recognition, spatial perception and the visual control of action, dissociations between perception and action, attention, consciousness, and the coordination of behavior. The issues raised will be of interest to psychologists, vision scientists, neuroscientists, and ophthalmologists.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Although the mechanics of how the eye works are well understood, debate still exists as to how the complex machinery of the brain interprets the neural impulses supplied by the eye. The authors of this book take a step back and ask, 'What is the function of vision?' in an attempt to understand its evolutionary origins and how these origins have shaped the organization of the human visual system. The main thesis of the book is that the neural machinery mediating our visual experience of the world is quite distinct from that mediating the visual control of motor behaviour. Topics covered range from the organization of visual pathways in the monkey to the role of consciousness in visual processing. Considerable attention is given to interpreting the visual defects seen in neurological patients with damage to different parts of the visual systems. The book will appeal to students, researchers, and practitioners in a number of different disciplines interested in vision and visual problems. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR002959312
