It may seem that the philosophy of art or philosophical aesthetics should deal with the issue of beauty, but the intertwining of the role of beauty with individual choices and social interactions has made scientific scientists to try to discover how beauty is perceived and its main components. In this book, Dr. Saleh Tabatabaei, a scholar of cognitive science, has critically reviewed the most important theories of beauty in experimental aesthetics and cognitive science. The book begins with Fechner's experimental aesthetics, then goes to Berlin's "Arousal Potential Theory", the application of "Information Theory" in aesthetics, Gestalt aesthetics, Martin Dale's cognitive theory of "prototypicality", Reber's cognitive theory of "facility of processing", the cognitive concept of "information processing". Leder's multi-stage, Schmidhuber's "algorithmic theory of beauty" and finally "Neuroaesthetics". The supplementary appendix of the book is about Ibn Haitham's "Theory of Proportions" in the perception of beauty. This is the theory that Renaissance artists such as Lorenzo Ghiberti, Leone Battista Alberti and Leonardo da Vinci borrowed from.
