Описание: This book uncovers how we make meaning of abstraction, both historically and in present times, and examines abstract images as a visual language.
Available again, an influential book that offers a framework for understanding visual perception and considers fundamental questions about the brain and its functions.
David Marr's posthumously published Vision (1982) influenced a generation of brain and cognitive scientists, inspiring many to enter the field. In Vision, Marr describes a general framework for understanding visual perception and touches on broader questions about how the brain and its functions can be studied and understood. Researchers from a range of brain and cognitive sciences have long valued Marr's creativity, intellectual power, and ability to integrate insights and data from neuroscience, psychology, and computation. This MIT Press edition makes Marr's influential work available to a new generation of students and scientists.
In Marr's framework, the process of vision constructs a set of representations, starting from a description of the input image and culminating with a description of three-dimensional objects in the surrounding environment. A central theme, and one that has had far-reaching influence in both neuroscience and cognitive science, is the notion of different levels of analysis -- in Marr's framework, the computational level, the algorithmic level, and the hardware implementation level.
Now, thirty years later, the main problems that occupied Marr remain fundamental open problems in the study of perception. Vision provides inspiration for the continuing efforts to integrate knowledge from cognition and computation to understand vision and the brain.

Описание: In this title, first published in 1978, the authors survey the historical and contemporary research relating to two-dimensional visual-geometric illusions. They summarise and evaluate theories offered to explain these phenomena. Then provide a new conceptual framework suggesting that visual illusions are not unitary phenomena.

S.; Spreen, Название: A Compendium of Neuropsychological Tests ISBN: 0195159578 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780195159578 Издательство: Oxford Academ Рейтинг: Цена: 121440.00 T Наличие на складе: Поставка под заказ. Описание: For the practicing neuropsychologist or researcher, keeping up with the sheer number of newly published or updated neuropsychological tests is a challenge, as is evaluating the utility and psychometric properties of each test in a clinical context. This thoroughly revised third edition of the well-established reference text, A compendium of Neuropsychological Tests, presents critical reviews of major neuropsychological assessment tools. Written in a comprehensive, easy-to-read format, it provides the reader with essential information concerning theoretical background, norms, reliability, validity, and utility of tests as well as of new measures. All chapters have been extensively updated and expanded, and two new chapters have been added: "Psychometrics in Neuropsychological Assessment" and "Norms Selection in Neuropsychological Assessment". Of interest to neuropsychologists, neurologists, psychiatrists, and educational and clinical psychologists working with adults as well as with paediatric populations, this volume will aid practitioners in selecting appropriate testing measures for their patients and will provide then with the knowledge needed to arrive at empirically supported interpretations of the results.
This book is the third in a series entitled, Compendium of In-Vivo Monitoring in Real-time Molecular Neuroscience. Its purpose is to provide a cross-section of research addressing monitoring in the rodent, and in some cases, the human brain.
Detailed understanding of the neurobiology of the brain is demanding and involves increasingly wider scope of talent ranging from physicists, neurobiologists, chemists, molecular biologists and bioengineers. Coming from varied backgrounds, they do not necessarily understand how to formulate functional issues in a mutually understandable way. This aim of this book is to provide information which can serve as a starting point for understanding such a complex topic.
The authors provide "tutorial" writing for specialists, as well as material understandable to a wide audience including neuroscientists, those interested in drug discovery, and those using such measurements for diagnosis purposes.

Автор: Deutsch, Diana (professor Of Psychology, Professor Of Psychology, University Of California, San Diego) Название: Musical illusions and phantom words ISBN: 0190206837 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780190206833 Издательство: Oxford Academ Рейтинг: Цена: 38530.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: In this ground-breaking synthesis of art and science, Diana Deutsch, one of the world's leading experts on the psychology of music, shows how illusions of music and speech--many of which she herself discovered--have fundamentally altered thinking about the brain. These astonishing illusions show that people can differ strikingly in how they hear musical patterns--differences that reflect variations in brain organization as well as influences of language on music perception. Drawing on a wide variety of fields, including psychology, music theory, linguistics, and neuroscience, Deutsch examines questions such as: When an orchestra performs a symphony, what is the real music? Is it in the mind of the composer, or the conductor, or different members of the audience? Deutsch also explores extremes of musical ability, and other surprising responses to music and speech. Why is perfect pitch so rare? Why do some people hallucinate music or speech? Why do we hear phantom words and phrases? Why are we subject to stuck tunes, or earworms? Why do we hear a spoken phrase as sung just because it is presented repeatedly? In evaluating these questions, she also shows how music and speech are intertwined, and argues that they stem from an early form of communication that had elements of both. Many of the illusions described in the book are so striking and paradoxical that you need to hear them to believe them. The book enables you to listen to the sounds that are described while reading about them.
Автор: Calabi Название: Perceptual Illusions ISBN: 0230347908 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780230347908 Издательство: Springer Рейтинг: Цена: 93160.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Although current debates in epistemology and philosophy of mind show a renewed interest in perceptual illusions, there is no systematic work in the philosophy of perception and in the psychology of perception with respect to the concept of illusion and the relation between illusion and error. This book aims to fill that gap.
