For the interested medical or neuroscience student, understanding how we visualize the world requires knowledge about occipital cortex … and about much else in the brain, including transitions from occipital to parietal and temporal lobes. Based on straightforward, carefully described anatomy in humans and primates, and informed by advances in cortical physiology over recent years, Miyawaki offers an accessible approach to understanding the multiple visual cortices. It has been said that vision is knowledge about what’s where in the world with the use of our eyes. So, how do we know what is what and where is where?
