Publisher's Synopsis

Brain damage can lead to selective problems with visual perception, including visual agnosia - the inability to recognize objects even though elementary visual functions are unimpaired. This text reviews all the recent records of this disorder and places these 100 or so case studies in the general context of current neuroscience. It draws relevant conclusions about the organization of normal visual processing.
