About this title

Synopsis

Vision is the most dominant of our senses. From it we derive most of our information about the world: the identity of things, where they are located, and how they move.

In Visual Perception, Nicholas J. Wade and Michael Swanston take a refreshingly different approach to perception. Their CCCC"viewCCCC" starts from the basis of what function vision actually serves for an active observer in a three-dimensional environment. The perception of location, motion, and object recognition forms the core of their book. The result is a readable, accessible, and truly relevant introduction to the world of perception which is especially valuable to students of psychology.
