Presented as a series of lectures, this important volume achieves
four major goals:
1) It integrates the results of the author's research as applied
to pattern perception -- reviewing current brain research and
showing how several lines of inquiry have been converging to
produce a paradigm shift in our understanding of the neural basis
of figural perception.
2) It updates the holographic hypothesis of brain function in
perception.
3) It emphasizes the fact that both distributed (holistic) and
localized (structural) processes characterize brain function.
4) It portrays a neural systems analysis of brain organization in
figural perception by computational models -- describing processing
in terms of formalisms found useful in ordering data in
20th-century physical and engineering sciences.
The lectures are divided into three parts: a Prolegomenon
outlining a theoretical framework for the presentation; Part I
dealing with the configural aspects of perception; and Part II
presenting its cognitive aspects. The appendices were developed in
a collaborative effort by the author, Kunio Yasue, and Mari Jibu
(both of Notre Dame Seishin University of Okayama, Japan).
