Somehow, without conscious effort, our eyes find the information we need to operate successfully in the world around us. The development of head-mounted eye trackers over recent years has made it possible to record where we look during different active tasks, and so work out what information our eyes supply to the brain systems that control our limbs. We are now in a position to explore the strategies that the eye movement system uses in the initiation and guidance of action.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLooking and Acting\u003c\/b\u003e examines a wide range of visually guided behaviour, from sedentary tasks like reading and drawing, to dynamic activities such as driving and playing cricket. A central theme is that the eye movement system has its own knowledge about where to find the most appropriate information for guiding action - information not usually available to conscious scrutiny. Thus each type of action has its own specific repertoire of linked eye movements, acquired in parallel with the motor skills themselves. Starting with a brief background to eye movement studies, the book then reviews a range of observations and analyses of different activities. It ends with discussions of the nature of visual representation, the neurophysiology of the systems involved, and the roles of attention and learning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpening a field in eye movement research, this fascinating book will be of great interest to all vision scientists (psychologists, physiologists, ophthalmologists) whether at professional, graduate, or advanced undergraduate levels.

They range from immersive systems in which people have life-size tracked avatar bodies to large-scale spaces such as Second Life where populations of users socialize in persistent virtual worlds. This book draws together research on how people interact in virtual environments: What difference does avatar appearance make? How do avatars collaborate and play together? How do the type of system and the space affect how people engage with each other? How does interaction between avatars differ from face-to-face interaction? What can social scientists learn from experiments and other studies of how people interact in virtual environments? What are the ethical and social issues in doing this research, and in the uses of this technology? And how do virtual environments differ from other communication technologies such as videoconferencing systems and other new media? This book is a state-of-the art survey of research on these topics, and offers a framework for understanding this technology and its future implications.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHumor \u0026amp; Entertainment\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePuzzles \u0026amp; Games\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVideo \u0026amp; Computer Games\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eGeneral\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Used - Good","offer_id":45262118650046,"sku":"0195371283-4","price":14.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/61YVgAsMqZL.jpg?v=1754088839"},{"product_id":"1250107814-factfulness_ten_reasons_were_wrong_about_the_world-and_why_things_are_better_than_you_think","title":"Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World--and Why Things Are Better Than You Think","description":"\n\u003cp\u003eWhen Asked Simple Questions About Global Trends--what Percentage Of The World's Population Live In Poverty; Why The World's Population Is Increasing; How Many Girls Finish School -- We Systematically Get The Answers Wrong.

Chalmers Convincingly Reveals How Contemporary Cognitive Science And Neurobiology Have Failed To Explain How And Why Mental Events Emerge From Physiological Occurrences In The Brain. He Proposes Instead That Conscious Experience Must Be Understood In An Entirely New Light—as An Irreducible Entity (similar To Such Physical Properties As Time, Mass, And Space) That Exists At A Fundamental Level And Cannot Be Understood As The Sum Of Its Parts. And After Suggesting Some Intriguing Possibilities About The Structure And Laws Of Conscious Experience, He Details How His Unique Reinterpretation Of The Mind Could Be The Focus Of A New Science. Throughout The Book, Chalmers Provides Fascinating Thought Experiments That Trenchantly Illustrate His Ideas. For Example, In Exploring The Notion That Consciousness Could Be Experienced By Machines As Well As Humans, Chalmers Asks Us To Imagine A Thinking Brain In Which Neurons Are Slowly Replaced By Silicon Chips That Precisely Duplicate Their Functions—as The Neurons Are Replaced, Will Consciousness Gradually Fade Away? The Book Also Features Thoughtful Discussions Of How The Author's Theories Might Be Practically Applied To Subjects As Diverse As Artificial Intelligence And The Interpretation Of Quantum Mechanics.\u003cbr\u003e All Of Us Have Pondered The Nature And Meaning Of Consciousness.

Focusing On Subjective Experience As Such, He Rejects All Reductive (materialist) Explanations For Conscious Experience In Favor Of A Metaphysical Framework Supporting A Strong Form Of Property Dualism. His Theory Is Grounded In Natural Supervenience, The Distinction Between Psychological And Phenomenological Properties Of Mind, And A Novel View Of The Ontological Status Of Consciousness Itself. Chalmers Uses Thought Experiments (e.g., Zombie Worlds, Silicon Chips, A Global Brain, And Inverted Spectra) And Discusses Such Issues As Causation, Intentionality, And Epiphenomenalism. Even So, The Critical Reader Is Left Asking, How Can Physical Facts Be Relevant To The Emergence Of Consciousness Beyond An Evolutionary Naturalist Worldview. Ongoing Neuroscience Research May Provide A Sufficient Explanation Of Consciousness Within A Materialistic Framework.

In an era of increasing fears about mental deterioration, world-renowned neuropsychologist Elkhonon Goldberg provides startling new evidence that though the brain diminishes in some tasks as it ages, it gains in many ways. Most notably, it increases in what he terms “wisdom”: the ability to draw upon knowledge and experience gained over a lifetime to make quick and effective decisions. Goldberg delves into the machinery of the mind, separating memory into two distinct types: singular (knowledge of a particular incident or fact) and generic (recognition of broader patterns). As the brain ages, the ability to use singular memory declines, but generic memory is unaffected—and its importance grows. As an individual accumulates generic memory, the brain can increasingly rely upon these stored patterns to solve problems effortlessly and instantaneously.

Every new reader's brain possesses the extraordinary capacity to rearrange itself beyond its original abilities in order to understand written symbols. But how does the brain learn to read? As world-renowned cognitive neuroscientist and scholar of reading Maryanne Wolf explains in this impassioned book, we taught our brain to read only a few thousand years ago, and in the process changed the intellectual evolution of our species. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWolf tells us that the brain that examined tiny clay tablets in the cuneiform script of the Sumerians is configured differently from the brain that reads alphabets or of one literate in today's technology. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are critical implications to such an evolving brain.

Interweaving her vast knowledge of neuroscience, psychology, literature, and linguistics, Wolf takes the reader from the brains of a pre-literate Homer to a literacy-ambivalent Plato, from an infant listening to Goodnight Moon to an expert reader of Proust, and finally to an often misunderstood child with dyslexia whose gifts may be as real as the challenges he or she faces. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs we come to appreciate how the evolution and development of reading have changed the very arrangement of our brain and our intellectual life, we begin to realize with ever greater comprehension that we truly are what we read.

Along the way, Wolf introduces concepts like \"word poverty,\" the situation in which children by age five have heard 32 million fewer words than their counterparts (with chilling long-term effects), and makes time for amusing and affecting anecdotes, such as the only child she knew to fake a reading disorder (in an attempt to get back into his beloved literacy training program). Though it could probably command a book of its own, the sizable third section of the book covers the complex topic of dyslexia, explaining clearly and expertly \"what happens when the brain can't learn to read.\" One of those rare books that synthesizes cutting-edge, interdisciplinary research with the inviting tone of a curious, erudite friend (think Malcolm Gladwell), Wolf's first book for a general audience is an eye-opening winner and deserves a wide readership\u003ci\u003e.

Two errant assumptions are responsible for current distorted child-rearing habits, dysfunctional school programs and wrongheaded social policies: first, things work in children the same way they work in adults and, second, positive traits necessarily oppose and ward off negative behavior. These myths, and others, are addressed in 10 provocative chapters that cover such issues as the inverse power of praise (effort counts more than results); why insufficient sleep adversely affects kids' capacity to learn; why white parents don't talk about race; why kids lie; that evaluation methods for “giftedness” and accompanying programs don't work; why siblings really fight (to get closer). Grownups who trust in “old-fashioned” common-sense child-rearing—the definitely un-PC variety, with no negotiation or parent-child equality—will have less patience for this book than those who fear they lack innate parenting instincts.

Designing technologies and systems to provide optimal sensory information to human users will be increasingly important. But to do this, quantitative relationships between brain behavior at a molecular level and observable human behavior must be better identified. This was previously considered to be a futuristic, and somewhat unrealistic, goal, however, recent advances in cognitive neuroscience have provided new opportunities for researchers. Refinements in imaging technology and simulation tools, and the learning yielded from them, provided the Quantifying Human Information Processing (QHIP) research teams strong starting points from which to further assess the ability to quantify human information processing. Led by experts in psychology, cognitive science, and information processing, among other fields, researchers sought to quantify the information flow in the nervous system, the limits of that flow, and how it is affected by emotions. The QHIP effort looked at specific aspects of the brain's information processing ability including measuring task-related and unrelated thought, assessing mental workload, and finding optimal information processing. The researchers found important indicators of both the capacity and limits of the human brain, and offer new ways to think about the brain. This work is a valuable contribution to the fields of psychology, neuroscience, and cognition, and will serve as a resource for human factors engineers designing the next generation of information, safety, analysis, and control systems because it starts to answer how to maximize information processing without overloading the central nervous system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEducation \u0026amp; Teaching\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eSchools \u0026amp; Teaching\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Jason Aronson, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Used - Poor","offer_id":47582479319230,"sku":"0739112015-6","price":55.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/91VUk6gXwmL.jpg?v=1779816614"},{"product_id":"0358157145-seven_and_a_half_lessons_about_the_brain","title":"Seven And A Half Lessons About The Brain","description":"\n\u003cp\u003eFrom The Author Of How Emotions Are Made, A Myth-busting Primer On The Brain In The Tradition Of Seven Brief Lessons On Physics And Astrophysics For People In A Hurry.

Bloom's central thesis is that what makes us uniquely human is our dualism: our understanding that there are material objects, or bodies, and people, or souls. He opens with evidence of babies' capacity to understand physical processes. What's more, he argues, children can anticipate the goals and intentions of others-an ability he calls \"mindreading.\" In a fascinating summary of research into children's ideas about representation, Bloom highlights a fundamental human cognitive preoccupation with intention. It is this preoccupation, he suggests, that explains the value of art in human society. In a similar vein, Bloom says, morality and altruism are inborn, not learned. Further, he argues counterintuitively that empathy and rationality can be mutually reinforcing, while impartiality and reasoned argument often have emotional roots. Keenly focused on child development as a gold mine for truths about human cognition, Bloom confidently-but never aggressively-engages with the thought of Chomsky, Dennett, Gould, Pinker and Piaget. His prose abounds with lively examples from conceptual art, contemporary fiction and his own child-rearing observations. The result is a delightful and humane study that makes rewarding reading for those interested in cognitive psychology's broader implications. Agent, Katinka Matson.
