This posthumously published book (1982), which influenced a generation of brain and cognitive scientists, inspiring many to enter the field, describes a general framework for understanding visual perception and touches on broader questions about how the brain and its functions can be studied and understood. This MIT Press edition makes this work available to a new generation of students and scientists. In the author's framework, the process of vision constructs a set of representations, starting from a description of the input image and culminating with a description of three-dimensional objects in the surrounding environment. A central theme, and one that has had far-reaching influence in both neuroscience and cognitive science, is the notion of different levels of analysis---in the author's framework, the computational level, the algorithmic level, and the hardware implementation level. Now, thirty years later, the main problems that occupied the author remain fundamental open problems in the study of perception. His book provides inspiration for the continuing efforts to integrate knowledge from cognition and computation to understand vision and the brain.
