Excerpt from Seeing and Human Welfare
Civilization has lifted burdens from the backs of human beings, but it has greatly increased the severity of Visual tasks. Unnatural or ab normal demands are being met by human seeing machines under unnatural or subnormal con ditions for seeing. Human resources - eyesight, energy, health and even lives and limbs - are being unnecessarily sacrificed through lack of consciousness and knowledge of seeing. A new science of seeing has recently extended the View point of Vision into an activity involving human beings and their efficiency, behavior, resources and welfare. To the obvious value of seeing has been added knowledge of the subtle costs of seeing to human beings.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book brings to light the previously unexplored phenomena of the "human seeing machine", or more simply, how the mind, body, and processes of seeing connect and interact. The author's research has shown that seeing is not an isolated activity that merely happens through the eyes. Instead, vision is a complex activity that involves the entire human system and its functions. Many factors, including intensity of light, affect how the brain processes visual information, and the author's research explores the implications of this profound relationship. The author also shows how these factors, from lighting to posture to stress, can be exploited to reduce waste of human energy and other resources and to improve overall seeing conditions. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9780282924829_0
