Beschreibung
While the scientific study of vision is well-advanced, a universal theory of qualitative visual appearances (texture, shape, colour and so on) is still lacking. This interdisciplinary handbook presents the work of leading researchers around the world who have taken up the challenge of defining and formalizing the field of 'experimental phenomenology'. * Presents and discusses a new perspective in vision science, and formalizes a field of study that will become increasingly significant to researchers in visual science and beyond * The contributors are outstanding scholars in their fields with impeccable academic credentials, including Jan J. Koenderink, Irving Biederman, Donald Hoffmann, Steven Zucker and Nikos Logothetis * Divided into five parts: Linking Psychophysics and Qualities; Qualities in Space, Time and Motion; Appearances; Measurement and Qualities; Science and Aesthetics of Appearances * Each chapter will have the same structure consisting of: topic overview; historical roots; debate; new perspective; methods; results and recent developments
Rezensionen
Systematic concern with visual appearances is as oldas modern science but it has not been pursued with the consistency accorded to visual processing. Galileo interrogated appearances in contrast to the optical approach heralded in his day by Kepler and Scheiner. Now the study of appearances is enjoying a renaissance due in no small part to the novel techniques of experimental phenomenology so clearly expounded in this book. Its practitioners are neither unified in their methods nor in their theories but they do share dissatisfactions with analyses of perception that sidestep the subjective dimensions which are fundamental features of our experience.--Nicholas Wade, Emeritus Professor, University of Dundee.
This Handbook brings together a distinguished collection of thinkers and researchers who address the subjective nature of visual perception as a science in its own right and who have developed a variety of new methods and concepts to investigate it. This could become an important book that redresses the balance of discussion and debate about what 'seeing'
