Description
Observer Mechanics: A Formal Theory of Perception provides information pertinent to the fundamental aspects of perception. This book provides an approach to the study of perception that attempts to be both general and rigorous.Organized into 10 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the structure of perceptual capacity. This text then presents the relationship between observers and Turing machines. Other chapters provide a formal framework in which to describe an observer and its objects of perception, and then develop from this framework a perceptual dynamics. This book discusses as well the conditions in which an observer may be said to perceive truly and discusses how stabilities in perceptual dynamics might permit the genesis of higher level observers. The final chapter deals with the relationship between the formalisms of quantum mechanics and observer mechanics.This book is a valuable resource for physicists, psychophysicists, philosophers, cognitive scientists, and perceptual psychologists.
User’s Reviews
Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:
⭐Not sure what star rating to give this, as it may very well be excellent for the technically minded reader, but for the armchair Hoffman fan it’s VERY unnecessary, especially for the academic price. I would rate it 1 star for how much I got out of it, but I recognised that I was taking a gamble buying it – I just loves me some Hoffman. Turns out, though, that he says nothing here I haven’t heard him say more simply elsewhere, and most of the book is high-level (to my mind, anyway) mathematics.
