The interpretation of visual motion

Visual phenomenology
"In this book, Michael Madary examines visual experience, drawing on both phenomenological and empirical methods of investigation. He finds that these two approaches--careful, philosophical description of experience and the science of vision--independently converge on the same result: Visual perception is an ongoing process of anticipation and fulfillment. Madary first makes the case for the de…

Seeing and visualizing :it's not what you think
"In Seeing and Visualizing Zenon Pylyshyn argues that seeing is different from thinking and that to see is not, as it may seem intuitively, to create an inner replica of the world. Pylyshyn examines how we see and how we visualize and why the scientific account does not align with the way these processes seem to us "from the inside." In doing so, he addresses issues in vision science, cognitive…
