Spotting a face in a crowd is so easy, you take it for granted. But
how you do it is one of science's great mysteries. Vision is
involved in nearly a third of everything a brain does and
explaining how it works reveals more than just how we see. It also
tells us how the brain processes information - how it perceives,
learns and remembers. In We Know It When We See It, pioneering
neuroscientist Richard Masland covers everything from what happens
when light hits your retina, to the increasingly sophisticated
nerve nets that turn that light into knowledge, to what a computer
algorithm must be able to do before it can truly be called
'intelligent'. It is a profound yet accessible investigation into
how our bodies make sense of the world.
