Evidence that axons have different functions in different parts of the corpus callosum. (Gazzaniga, 1995, p. 1 Misdescription of the results of commissurotomy According to the above interpretation of the results of commissurotomy by Gazzaniga and Le Doux, the hemispheres of the brain may possess knowledge and can perceive. However, only human beings can know and perceive, not their brains – which can neither see nor hear, neither write nor speak, nor interpret anything or make inferences from information.
584; b: Hubel and Wiesel, 1977, p. e. 4b) could be thought of as arising from combinations of the ‘simple’ centre–surround receptive fields possessed by retinal ganglion neurons and neurons in the lateral geniculate nucleus. This idea indicated that there might be a hierarchical increase in complexity of neuronal receptive fields for neurons at progressively higher levels of the cortex – that is, at levels progressively further removed from the retinal input. Barlow (1972) gave these neurons with very complex receptive field properties the title ‘cardinal neurons’.
