Hardback. When we talk of 'seeing' a film, we do not refer to a purely visual experience. Rather, to understand what we see on screen, we rely as much on non-visual senses as we do on sight. This book rethinks the body in the cinema seat, charting the emergence of embodied film theory and the developments in philosophy, neuroscience, and film theory. Series: International Library of Visual Culture. Num Pages: 248 pages. BIC Classification: APFA; APFB. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 225 x 148 x 25.
