The advent of sensors capable of localizing portions of the brain involved inspecific computations has provided significant insights into normal visual information processing and specific neurological conditions. Aided by devices such as fMRI, researchers are now able to construct highly detailed models of how the brain processes specific patterns of visual information. This book brings together some of the strongest thinkers in this field, to explore cortical visual information processing and its underlying mechanisms. It is an excellentresource for vision researchers with both biological and computational backgrounds, and is an essential guide for graduate students just starting out in the field. INDICE: Cortical mechanisms of vision. Dorsal stream. The lateral intraparietal area: a priority map in posterior parietal cortex. Left-to-right reversal of hemispatial neglect symptoms following adaptation to reversing prisms. Sensorimotor aspects of reach deficits in optic ataxia. Etc.
