How do we gain access to things as they are? Although we routinely take our self-madepictures to be veridical representations of reality, in actuality we choose (albeit unwittingly) orconstruct what we see. By movements of the eyes, the direction of our gaze, we create meaning. InBrain and the Gaze, Jan Lauwereyns offers a novel reformulation of perception andits neural underpinnings, focusing on the active nature of perception. In his investigation ofactive perception and its brain mechanisms, Lauwereyns offers the gaze as the principal paradigm forperception. In a radically integrative account, grounded in neuroscience but drawing on insightsfrom philosophy and psychology, he discusses the dynamic and constrained nature of perception; thecomplex information processing at the level of the retina; the active nature of vision; theintensive nature of representations; the gaze of others as visual stimulus; and the intentionalityof vision and consciousness. An engaging point of entry to the cognitive neuroscience of perception,written for neuroscientists but illuminated by insights from thinkers ranging from William James toSlavoj ?i?ek, Brain and the Gaze will give new impetus to research andtheory in the field.
