Eye and Brain
by Richard L Gregory

Since the publication of the first edition in 1966, “Eye and Brain” has established itself worldwide as an essential introduction to the basic phenomena of visual perception. Richard Gregory offers clear explanations of how we see brightness, movement, colour, and objects, and he explores the phenomena of visual illusions to establish principles about how perception normally works and why it sometimes fails. Successive editions have incorporated new discoveries and ideas, and this latest edition has completely revised and updated text, with more than thirty new illustrations. 
There are also new sections on what babies see and how they learn to see, on motion perception, and tantalizing glimpses of the relationship between vision and consciousness and of the impact of new brain imaging techniques. The thousands of readers of the previous editions of Eye and Brain will find this new revised edition even more attractive and enthralling.
