The case study of John has provided a unique insight into the
nature of visual agnosia and more broadly into the underlying
processes which support human vision. After suffering a stroke,
John had problems in recognizing common objects, faces, seeing
colours, reading and finding his way around his environment. A
Reader in Visual Agnosia brings together the primary scientific
papers describing the detailed investigations for each visual
problem which the authors carried out with John, known as patient
HJA. This work was summarised initially in To See But Not To See
(1987), and 26 years later in A Case Study in Visual Agnosia
Revisited (2013). The chapters are divided into 6 parts
corresponding to the key areas of investigation: Integrative visual
agnosia Perception of global form Face perception Colour perception
Word recognition Changes over time Each part contains a short
introduction, written by the two leading researchers who worked
with John, which highlights the relations between the papers and
demonstrates the pathway of the case analysis. The book will be
invaluable to students and researchers in visual cognition,
cognitive neuropsychology and vision neuroscience.
