Perception
Perception is one of the most pervasive and puzzling problems in philosophy, generating a great deal of attention and controversy in philosophy of mind, psychology and metaphysics.If perceptual illusion and hallucination are possible, how can perception be what it intuitively seems to be, a direct and immediate access to reality?How can perception be both internally dependent and externally directed?Perception is an outstanding introduction to this fundamental topic, covering both the perennial and recent work on the problem.Adam Pautz examines four of the most important theories of perception: the sense datum view; the internal physical state view; the representational view; and naïve realism, assessing each in turn.He also discusses the relationship between perception and the physical world and the issue of whether reality is as it appears. Useful examples are included throughout the book to illustrate the puzzles of perception, including hallucinations, illusions, the laws of appearance, blindsight, and neuroscientific explanations of our experience of pain, smell and color.The book covers both traditional philosophical arguments and more recent empirical arguments deriving from research in psychophysics and neuroscience.The addition of chapter summaries, suggestions for further reading and a glossary of terms make Perception essential reading for anyone studying the topic in detail, as well as for students of philosophy of mind, philosophy of psychology and metaphysics.

Information Visualization : Perception for Design
Information Visualization: Perception for Design, Fourth Edition explores the art and science of why we see objects the way we do.Based on the science of perception and vision, the author presents the key principles at work for a wide range of applications--resulting in visualization of improved clarity, utility and persuasiveness.This new edition has been revised and updated to include the latest relevant research findings.Content has been updated in areas such as the cognitive neuroscience of maps and navigation, the neuroscience of pattern perception, and the hierarchy of learned patterns. New changes to the book make it easier to apply perceptual lessons to design decisions.In addition, the book offers practical guidelines that can be applied by anyone, including interaction designers and graphic designers of all kinds.

Lighting Design : A Perception-Based Approach
By reading this book, you will develop the skills to perceive a space and its contents in light, and be able to devise a layout of luminaires that will provide that lit appearance. Written by renowned lighting expert Christopher (Kit) Cuttle, the book: explains the difference between vision and perception, which is the distinction between providing lighting to make things visible, and providing it to influence the appearance of everything that is visible;demonstrates how lighting patterns generated by three-dimensional objects interacting with directional lighting are strongly influential upon how the visual perception process enables us to recognize object attributes, such as lightness, colourfulness, texture and gloss; reveals how a designer who understands the role of these lighting patterns in the perceptual process may employ them either to reveal, or to subdue, or to enhance the appearance of selected object attributes by creating appropriate spatial distributions of light; carefully explains calculational techniques and provides easy-to-use spreadsheets, so that layouts of lamps and luminaires are derived that can be relied upon to achieve the required illumination distributions.Practical lighting design involves devising three-dimensional light fields that create luminous hierarchies related to the visual significance of each element within a scene.By providing you with everything you need to develop a design concept - from the understanding of how lighting influences human perceptions of surroundings, through to engineering efficient and effective lighting solutions – Kit Cuttle instills in his readers a new-found confidence in lighting design.

Face Perception
Human faces are unique biological structures that convey a complex variety of important social messages.Even strangers can tell things from our faces – our feelings, our locus of attention, something of what we are saying, our age, sex, and ethnic group, whether they find us attractive or approachable. Face Perception, second edition, has been thoroughly updated throughout, providing an up-to-date, integrative summary by two authors who have helped to develop and shape the field.The book begins with the foundations of face perception before considering what is known about how we see different things in faces.It concludes with a discussion of how face perception relates to wider questions involving interpersonal perception and re-examines the question of what makes faces ‘special’.The importance of integrating different research perspectives and asking critical theoretical questions is emphasised throughout, to develop a distinctive point of view of the area.Written in a clear and accessible style, this is invaluable reading for all students and researchers interested in studying face perception and social cognition.

Human Perception
It takes little or no effort for us to gather information by means of our senses but it would be a mistake to take this as a sign that perception is simple.It was in the 20th century and after the establishment of psychology as a scientific discipline that the study of perception flourished.This important volume gathers together a selection of articles and essays which represent some of the most interesting discoveries and theories.It gives a flavour of the many different approaches and ideas taken by cognitive psychologists in this fascinating area.Topics covered include: attention, brain systems, object interpolation and completion, object recognition and classification, different types of objects, and information processing and models.

First Perception
Crack open a can of lager and put on your dancing shoes, because PIGEON TOE's debut album "The First Perception" is a riotous journey through the weird and wonderful world of indie-pop. This band from the north of England has crafted an album that is as deliciously unpredictable as a Friday night out in Sheffield. From the opening track "Marmalade Moon" with its infectious guitar riffs and cheeky lyrics, to the synth-laden bangers like "Neon Nights" and "Disco Ballad", PIGEON TOE never fails to deliver the goods. Singer Jenny Smith's vocals are like a shot of whiskey - smooth, smoky, and guaranteed to give you a buzz. But what really sets this album apart is its willingness to embrace the absurd. Tracks like "Sausage Roll Serenade" and "Dancing with Dodos" are so bonkers, they shouldn't work - but somehow they do. It's like being at a party where everyone is just a little bit too drunk, but having the time of your life anyway. "The First Perception" is a breath of fresh air in a music scene that can sometimes take itself too seriously. PIGEON TOE remind us that music should be fun, experimental, and a little bit mad. So grab your feather boa and get ready to strut your stuff - this album is going to be on repeat all summer long.
