Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Human faces are unique biological structures which convey a complex variety of important social messages. Even strangers can tell things from our faces - our feelings, our locus of attention, something of what we are saying, our age, sex, and ethnic group, whether they find us attractive. In recent years there has been genuine progress in understanding how our brains derive all these different messages from faces and what can happen when one or other of the structures involved is damaged. Face Perception is an up-to-date, integrative summary by two influential authors who have helped shape the field over the past 30 years. This book offers a distinctive perspective on face perception through a compelling synthesis of behavioural, neuropsychological, and cognitive neuroscience approaches.
