Attention, Perception and Action

In the World Library of Psychologists series, international experts themselves present career-long collections of what they judge to be their finest pieces - extracts from books, key articles, salient research findings, and their major practical theoretical contributions. Glyn Humphreys has an international reputation as an eminent scholar and pioneer in the field of cognitive neuropsychology. A specially written introduction gives an overview of his career and contextualises the selection in relation to changes in the field during this time. The book enables the reader to trace developments in cognitive neuropsychology over the last forty years. It will be invaluable reading for students and researchers in visual cognition, cognitive neuropsychology and vision neuroscience.

Glyn Humphreys is Watts Professor of Experimental Psychology at the University of Oxford, UK.
