Thank you, Mark for the book recommendation.
I took a quick glimpse, and I've found some of the clinical cases it
uses as examples quite fascinating.
Human's body, and especially human's brain is such a fascinating and
challenging topic! I think we know more about the physics of remote stars
than about how our own brain and the cognitive system in particular work.
... But I might be seeing it differently from how you are seeing it! ;)

That is very true, as many experiments and optical illusions clearly
demonstrate. The human mind has enormous power to make sense out of
limited sensory input.
Check out "An Anthropologist on Mars" by Oliver Sacks. All about
visual perception and absolutely fascinating. Every photographer
should read it.
