OBJECT AND FACE RECOGNITION: A SPE

This special issue on Object and Face Recognition presents a series of original papers which show how current experimental, neuropsychological and computational techniques are clarifying the mechanisms involved in processing and recognising objects and faces, and the relationship between face recognition and the recognition of other kinds of visual object. The assembled collection contains articles by leading researchers in Canada, the USA, New Zealand and Europe and illustrates very clearly the methodological diversity, and technical and conceptual ingenuity, of current work in this intriguing area of visual cognition.
