Scene 2—Take 2
نویسنده
چکیده
In Britain today, between twenty and thirty thousand human beings exist abandoned and forgotten in hospitals for the mentally subnormal. There are over 60,000 patients in these hospitals and surveys in many of them have shown that from a third to a half of their patients are never visited. A few patients, irrespective of the severity of their mental condition, have regular and faithful visitors. In some cases patients have relatives or friends who travel long distances and make the most commendable efforts to keep in touch with the hospital, but other patients have either no living next-of-kin or have lost contact with their families.

متن کاملThe role of visual salience in directing eye movements in visual object agnosia
Sabira K. Mannan1, Christopher Kennard1,3 and Masud Husain2,3 Correspondence When we look at a scene our scanning eye movements are not random [1]. Remarkably, different observers look at similar points in a given image. One explanation is that our understanding of the scene controls the paths our eyes take — so called ‘top-down’ control. An alternative possibility is that the visual system use...
