Attentional Engines
Attentional Engines explores the potential of the growing field of cognitive sciences and aesthetics. Along the way it introduces readers to the philosophy of art and evaluates what psychology and neuroscience can and cannot tell us about the nature and value of artworks. Seeley utilizes a case study approach to explain how research in perceptual psychology and the neuroscience of attention can contribute to our everyday understanding of art.
Empathy in Mental Illness
The lack of ability to emphathize is central to many psychiatric conditions. Empathy is affected by neurodevelopment, brain pathology and psychiatric illness.

Psychiatrists, psychotherapists and mental heath professionals will find this a very useful reference for their work.

The dynamic field of machine learning with its modern approach to data mining provides many relevant approaches for neuroscience and enables the exploration of open questions. This state-of-the-art survey offers a collection of papers from the Worksho...
