This new benchmark publication comes from one of the world's foremost researchers on vision and the brain. The cerebal cortex is the most complicated piece of matter in the known universe, and is responsible for all the higher behavioural functions which help define us as human. A Vision of the Brain is the most sustained attempt made so far to explain how the cortex works both with specific reference to vision and generally. At a level accessible to those beginning studies within neuroscience, this exciting book explores the unfolding of our understanding, as a detective story, of how the visual cortex works, which in turn gives us a vision of how the brain works as a whole. Illustrated throughout in two colours, and examining both normal and abnormal functions, this book will be of major interest to neurologists, psychologists, ophthalmologists and neuroscientists.

For the last two year, I've been studied vision perception in many authors and in different theories. The most impressiv texts about this subject I've read are the ones written by Semir Zeki, including A Vision of the Brain, which offfers global explanation in many aspects of vision function. It brings the reader to a unsderstanding of how retina works to capture lights/colors to different cerebral areas of processing visual information.
