Discussing the neural behavior of visuomotor processing in the primate brain, this book synthesizes the knowledge on the anatomical and functional organization of the primate visual system and proposes fresh directions for research. It also describes methods for investigating the visual system.
Discussing the neural behavior of visuomotor processing in the primate brain, this book synthesizes current knowledge on the anatomical and functional organization of the primate visual system and proposes new directions for research. It describes state-of-the-art methods for investigating the visual system and includes coverage of how the visual system is formed during development. Contributed by a multidisciplinary group of leading researchers, chapters consider a range of topics concerning various primates, including humans, and cover processing from the eye to neural codes for action, and from basic perception to memory.
"Chapters are well written and offer clear examples of complicated system interconnectivity. The book offers a focused and detailed insight into a portion of the primate visual system? Overall, this book warrants its place as a valued reference book." - in Contemporary Topics in Laboratory Animal Science
