Volume 1 Basic Mechanisms | Perceiving In Depth

A significant portion of the work is dedicated to the anatomy and physiology of the primate visual system.

The book emphasizes "experience-dependent" neural plasticity—the idea that the brain's visual circuits must be "tuned" by environmental stimuli during early development to function correctly. Perceiving in Depth Volume 1 Basic Mechanisms

The text follows the visual signal from the eye through the Lateral Geniculate Nucleus (LGN) to the visual cortex. It pays specific attention to the columnar organization of the cortex, which is specialized for depth-related processing. A significant portion of the work is dedicated
