Babies are born with an instant fascination with the human face, and this powerful natural attraction persists throughout our lives. In the Eye of the Beholder takes readers on an engaging tour of the science behind this all-too-human activity, revealing what happens inside our heads when we look at faces.
What can neuroscience tell us about how the brain perceives faces? How do facial proportions change as we age? Can one judge personality simply by looking at a face? Why are some faces more attractive to us? Psychologists Vicki Bruce and Andy Young provide thought-provoking answers to these questions, using state-of-the-art science, amazing computer-manipulated graphics, and colorful paintings from the Scottish National Portrait Gallery.
This lavishly illustrated volume--featuring over 200 pictures, including fifty in full color--takes us behind the scenes of something we do a hundred times a day, revealing how we look at, and judge, human faces.
