Item description from seller

orig.cloth Minor rubbing. An ink mark to bottom page-edge. VG., dustwrapper 24x18cm, vii,410 pp "Empirical and theoretical foundations for the study of the temporal dynamics of mechanisms contributing to unconscious and conscious processing of visual information; from computational, psychological, neuropsychological, and neurophysiological perspectives. Recent advances in the study of visual cognition and consciousness have dealt primarily with steady-state properties of visual processing, with little attention to its dynamic aspects. The First Half Second brings together for the first time the latest research on the dynamics of conscious and unconscious processing of visual information, examining the time-course of visual processes from the moment a stimulus is presented until it registers in a behavioural response or in consciousness a few hundred milliseconds later. The contributors analyse this "first half second" of visual processing--known as its microgenesis - from a variety of perspectives, including neuroscience, neuropsychology, psychophysics, psychology, and neural network modelling. The book first treats conceptual,methodological, and historical issues and provides an integrated review of findings from recent studies on the neural underpinnings of consciousness. The book then turns to neurophysiological correlates of dynamic processing in vision, highlighting the temporal dimension of functional distinctions. ." - Publisher's description. Minor rubbing.
