Bücher von William R. Uttal

This book examines the scientific basis of reductionist approaches to understanding visual perception, as well as a critique of con-temporary thinking on perceptual science. For experimental psychologists, and researchers studying perception.

This book examines the question--are mental processes accessible-- within the context of reviewing the past, present, and desirable future of behaviorism.

Sequel to author's earlier work: Neural theories of mind: why the mind-brain problem may never be solved, published in 2005.

Addresses the question of localization: whether psychological processes can be defined and isolated in a way that permits them to be associated with particular brain regions.

This text examines the scientific basis of reductionist approaches to understanding visual perception. The author considers the "misdirection" of efforts to explain perceptual and other mental functions in terms of internal cognitive mechanisms, formal models or the brain's neural structures.
