N2  - 'A sumptuous book covering art history and linking it to a broad and deep coverage of visual neurosciences. This is a delightful, engaging text for advanced undergraduates as well as for specialists in vision and in art who want to understand the overlap of the two disciplines. It will bring both groups of readers back to favourite works of art with a new appreciation.' Patrick Cavanagh, Universite Paris Descartes and Harvard University, Massachusetts 'With his clear style, Mather makes difficult constructs accessible which, I believe, will stimulate a modern debate about an ancient topic. Just the book I have been waiting for!' Gabriele Jordan, Newcastle University 'This book will stimulate young scientists to look at art and to apply their thinking to it. A pleasure to read.' Al Rees, Royal College of Art '... effectively merges the art and science sides of our visual experience ... I recommend this book.' Amy Ione, Director, The Diatrope Institute 'This is excellent material for lively discussions and much thought.' Perception
