Yin Hai · 2003
This essay will summarize the researches on this problem in recent years from three aspects: studies of the braindamaged, studies through technology of brain imaging and eventrelated potentials, studies on the level of neurons. These indicate that superiore temporal sulcus ,inferotemporal cortex ,fusiform gyrus can only be activated by face stimulus specially.
