The investigation of what people understand and remember from rapidly presented sequences of visual stimuli began in the late 1960s. In this book prominent researchers approach the topic from psychological, neuropsychological, and electrophysiological perspectives. In short, the book is about our remarkably developed abilities to understand and remember the contents of very briefly presented material.
