Publisher's Synopsis
Dedicated to David Adair Robinson's work, this book presents what has always been an archetypical "insight" of man into the nature of his eyes. They are not only the sentinels of observation and the lodestars of judgment, they are also the light of the body and the window of the soul.;They appear in the light of the contributions by ocular motor scientists as part of a highly differentiated system controlling body movements. Seeing is not only believing - it is, as the Eibsee symposium has demonstrated, the vital instrument which enables man to move in time and space. The abstracts collected here mark the position that has been reached.
