Originally published in 1987, this book, attempted to bring
together work by researchers concerned with the functional and
neurological mechanisms underlying visual object processing, and
the ways in which such mechanisms can be neurologically impaired.
The editors termed it a 'Cognitive Neuropsychological' approach,
because they believed it tried to relate evidence from neurological
impairments of visual object processing to models of normal
performance in a new and important way. Two broad aims are
apparent. One is to test models of normal performance by evaluating
how well the models account for the patterns of impairment and
preservation of abilities that can occur following brain damage.
The other is to use models of normal performance to further their
understanding of acquired disorders of visual object processing.
These aims distinguish the approach from neuropsychological work
whose primary aim is to relate acquired deficits to the sites of
damage, and from work in the field of cognitive psychology which
attempts only to develop models of normal performance.
