Drawing on the tenets of James J. Gibson's ecological theory of visual perception, the fifteen essays and forty-one illustrations gathered here by editors Joseph D. Anderson and Barbara Fisher Anderson offer a new understanding of how moving images are seen and understood.<BMotion picturesPsychological aspectsMotion picture audiencesPsychologyElectronic books.Motion picturesPsychological aspects.Motion picture audiencesPsychology.302.23/43Anderson Joseph1940-780401Anderson Barbara Fisher1951-1051525MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452699603321Moving image theory2482095UNINA
