The purpose of this Tutorial is to summarize these recent advances
and to describe our present understanding, based primarily on anatomic
investigations, of the Neural Organization of the Mammalian Retina. A great
addition has been a section on Psychophysics of Vision which we hope will be of
general information to all interested in learning the basics of visual
perception.
