Abstract
AbstractWelcome to Neuroaesthetics! This exciting, new, interdisciplinary field brings together subjects as seemingly far apart as neurobiology and art history and puts them in dialogue with one another. This Introduction is intended to briefly provide insights into some recent scientific works and methods in neuroaesthetics and to whet your appetite for the lectures and lab work that will follow.
