About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Book Preview: #1 The experiment showed that the audience was unable to see the difference between the two tabletops, because they were exactly the same. The speaker went on to explain how the eye receives, the brain registers, and the mind interprets visual information.
#2 The visual illusion called Turning the Tables demonstrates the success of a visual system that has adapted to the combination of a two-dimensional retina inside the eye and a three-dimensional world outside. The brain’s automatic understanding of the data is so confident that it imposes the third dimension of depth onto the scene.
#3 The modern conception of the unconscious mind is credited to another historical figure, Hermann von Helmholtz, who described how the mind creates from physical data the conscious perceptions that define our ordinary and subjective experiences of seeing.
#4 The mind is an automatic association-making machine. When it encounters any information, related information comes to mind. In this case, the words in the original list had a insect theme, and unthinkingly, we used that shared theme as we tried to remember the past.
