- Summary:
- Psychologists Wade (U. of Dundee) and Swanston (U. of Abertay Dundee) examine the function that vision serves for an active observer in a three-dimensional environment. The perception of location, motion, and object recognition, are at the core of the study, and they write for readers with no background in psychology. The topics include fundamentals of vision, optics and the eye, the visual brain, spatial motion, and spatial representation. The 1991 first edition had no citations, which were added to the 2001 edition, but dropped again here. Psychology Press is an imprint of the Taylor & Francis Group.
