Abstract
Steven Lehar's new heuristic model of perceptual analysis raises interesting
issues but in the end falls short. Its arguments are more in the Cartesian
than Gestalt tradition. Much of the argument is based on setting up
theoretical straw men and ignores well known perceptual and brain science.
Arguments are reviewed in light of known physiology and traditional
Gestalt theory.
Steven Lehar’s article purports to present a new model of perception.
