Summary
The derivation, exposition, and justification of the Selective Tuning model of vision and attention.
Although William James declared in 1890, “Everyone knows what attention is,” today there are many different and sometimes opposing views on the subject.

Critics Review
John Tsotsos manages to achieve the difficult task of striking a good balance between an extensive overview and greater depth given the interdisciplinary nature of the theme. This book is a must read for Ph.D students who are working in this area, as it explicitly states several open topics of research and even offers overt hints and methods to address them.
–Cognitive Systems ResearchThe algorithmic architecture of Tsotsos’ updated selective tuning model will have immediate appeal for computational neuroscientists….
