is a foundational work by Ian P. Howard that serves as a definitive technical review of the biological and psychophysical processes allowing humans and animals to navigate a three-dimensional world.
Howard provides a comprehensive review of how depth perception matures from the embryonic stage to post-natal life. Perceiving in Depth Volume 1 Basic Mechanisms
A detailed analysis covers how disruptions during these critical periods—such as strabismus (crossed eyes) or monocular deprivation—can lead to permanent defects like amblyopia (lazy eye) or a total loss of stereoscopic vision. is a foundational work by Ian P
Unlike simpler texts, this volume also provides deep dives into the motor controls of vision, such as accommodation (the eye's ability to focus) and vergence (the simultaneous movement of both eyes to maintain single binocular vision).
