Levels of Perception - by Laurence Harris & Michael Jenkin (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

The authors relate and discuss the idea that perceptual processes can be considered at many levels. A phenomenon that appears at one level may not be the same as a superficially similar phenomenon that appears at a different level. Sections include vestibular processing, eye movement processing, processing during brightness perception, and levels of processing in spatial vision.

Review Quotes

From the reviews:

"Levels of Perception is a collection of papers from a 2001 conference held to honour Ian Howard. ... This is an excellent additional resource ... . this book would be an excellent way for students to begin thinking seriously about levels of perception and how to experimentally attack these levels rigorously. ... achieves its main aim, namely to be a suitable tribute to the work of Ian Howard, and to the underlying philosophy driving that work." (Andrew Wilson, Perception, Vol. 32 (8), 2003)
