Vision research is one of the largest and most active areas within
brain research. Psychologists, neuroscientists, opthamologists and
optometrists, computer scientists, and engineers all have an
interest in the practical side of the subject. Vision Research is a
clear and comprehensive laboratory manual providing all the
detailed practical information needed to undertake vision research.
Spanning methods used across the breadth of vision research, this
book provides detailed protocols and advice on experimental
techniques and procedures, as well as useful background
information. It covers the choice and use of modern light sources
and optical components, with particular consideration of how to
generate specified colours, and the creation and presentation of
images, with special emphasis on up-to-date computer techniques. It
also deals with the design of psychophysical experiments, and the
particular problems posed by working with children and with
animals. Finally, it provides a thorough coverage of all types of
physiological measurement: of ERG and evoked potentials, and the
measurement of accommodation, eye movements, and pupil diameter.
Here are the "tricks of the trade" of vision research, from some if
its leading practitioners, of a kind that cannot be found in
published papers and are often only acquired through apprenticeship
and a life-time of personal experience. Accessibly written for
those with little background in optics and electronics, this book
will be essential for students undertaking practical vision
research for the first time. Clinical researchers and experienced
researchers in other fields wishing to learn about and use vision
research techniques will also find it extremely useful. An
essential resource in every vision research laboratory.
