For this new edition, the text from the original edition has been left untouched, standing as a coherent statement of the authors' position. However, a very substantial epilogue has been added to the book in which Milner and Goodale review some of the key developments that support or challenge the views that were put forward in the first edition. The new chapter summarizes developments in various relevant areas of psychology, neuroscience and behaviour. It notably supplements the main text by updating the reader on the contributions that have emerged from the use of functional neuroimaging, which was in its infancy when the first edition was written. Neuroimaging, and functional MRI in particular, has revolutionized the field over the past 11 years by allowing investigators to plot in detail the patterns of activity within the visual brains of behaving and perceiving humans. The authors show how its use now allows scientists to test and confirm their proposals, based as they then were largely on evidence accrued from primate neuroscience in conjunction with studies of neurological patients.

Store description
Somos una librería que apenas está dando sus primeros pasos, lo que en los tiempos que corren no negarán que requiere valor; somos una librería modesta pero entusiasta. Nuestra vocación es ser generalistas: Narrativa, Infantil y juvenil, Ciencia-Ficción, Novela negra, Cocina, Ciencias Sociales, etc. Nuestro catálogo está compuesto por libros nuevos, pero descatalogados y libros usados, alguno con bastantes años encima. Con éstos últimos intentamos ser lo más objetivos en su descripción, señalando los defectos o particularidades que pueda tener en cualquiera de sus partes, hojas subrayadas, desprendidas, amarillentas, encuadernación fatigada, etc. …
