The Interdisciplinary Handbook of Perceptual Control Theory, Volume II: Living in the Loop
Editat de Warren Mansell, Eva de Hullu, Vyv Huddy, Tom Scholteen Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 mar 2023
- Examines the relationship between our perceptions, consciousness, and imagination
- Provides computational and mathematical models for physiological systems, such as human movement, human-machine interaction, and psychological processes such as recovery from mental health problems
- Presents health as control which leads to game-changing suggestions in designing interventions for health behavior, cancer support, care for dementia, and mental health services
- Helps readers comprehend goals of teachers and students in education from a PCT perspective to show how educative interactions could be less coercive and foster flourishing
- The value of PCT is demonstrated in understanding cultural memes and social challenges such as toxic masculinity

Recenzii
"This second volume — of the handbook of perceptual control theory — is a tour de force of how we, as embodied creatures, navigate our sensorium. It is written by people doing cuttingedge work in theoretical neurobiology – and beyond; ranging from controlled perception, through communication in neurodegenerative disorders to the ‘Theatre of the Oppressed’. The crosscutting theme is the circular causality inherent in active sensing and perceptual control–framed artfully as ‘living in the loop’. The ideas on offer testify to the fact that Perceptual Control Theory is a landmark theory in our journey of self-understanding – ideas whose fecundity is amply demonstrated in these pages." - Karl Friston FRS, University College London
"It is a wonderful overview of the current state of affairs in the field and a just tribute to the founding father of PCT, William (Bill) Powers. This book is a must-read for anyone willing to gain a better understanding of hierarchical (perceptual) control theory and its ramifications to a wide range of scientific fields, varying from the physical sciences and engineering to clinical medicine and the humanities. The appearance of this book is very timely, as we dive further into an age that appears to be in a dire need for gentle hierarchical control." -- Dr. Rutger Goekoop, MD, PhD, Psychiatrist, Free University Amsterdam Department of Behavioral and Movement Sciences; Parnassia Academy, PsyQ, The Hague, Department of Anxiety disorders, Early Detection and Intervention Team (psychosis)
"In this second volume of a much-needed handbook, the authors break ground in developing and extending perceptual control theory, showing its application to a range of fields, including health behaviours, mental health service provision, and education. A rich, in-depth, and stimulating collection of papers that are an essential resource for those interested in this cutting edge perspective on human experiencing and behaviour." -- Mick Cooper, Professor of Counselling Psychology, University of Roehampton
