Since the publication of the first edition in 1966, "Eye and brain" has established itself as an important introduction to the basic phenomena of visual perception. Although successive editions have incorporated new discoveries and ideas, this edition has been completely revised and updated, with the addition of more than 30 illustrations. The phenomena of illusion continues to be a major theme in the book, which attempts to provide a comprehensive classification systems. There are also sections on what babies see and how they learn to see, on motion perceptions, and tanatalising glimpses of the relationship between vision and consciousness, and the impact of new brain imaging techniques. In addition, the presentation of the text and illustrations has been improved by the larger format and page design.
