The human face is unique among social stimuli in conveying such a variety of        different characteristics. A person's identity, sex, race, age, emotional state,        focus of attention, facial speech patterns, and attractiveness are all detected and        interpreted with relative ease from the face. Humans also display a surprising        degree of consistency in the extent to which personality traits, such as        trustworthiness and likeability, are attributed to faces. In the past thirty years,        faceperception has become an area of major interest within psychology, with a        rapidly expanding research base. Yet until now, there has been no comprehensive        reference work bringing together this ever growing body of research.The Oxford        Handbook of Face Perception is the most comprehensive and commanding review of the        field ever published. It looks at the functional and neural mechanisms underlying        the perception, representation, and interpretation of facial characteristics, such        as identity, expression, eye gaze, attractiveness, personality, and race. It        examines the development of these processes, their neural correlates in both human        and non-human primates, congenital and acquired disorders resulting from        theirbreakdown, and the theoretical and computational frameworks for their        underlying mechanisms. With chapters by an international team of leading authorities        from the brain sciences, the book is a landmark publication on face perception.For        anyone looking for the definitive text on this burgeoning field, this is the        essential book.
