TLDR
Although the striate cortex sends a convergent input to the cortex of the posterior bank of the superior temporal sulcus, it also sends a topographically organised input to areas 18 and 191,16, which raises the possibility that there might be two independent pathways between the Striate cortex with its precise topographical organisation and the cortex that has been shown to receive afferents from large parts of the primary visual cortex.About:

A direct demonstration of functional specialization in human visual cortex
Semir Zeki,John D.G. Watson,Christian J. Lueck,Karl J. Friston,C. Kennard,Richard S. J. Frackowiak +5 more
TL;DR: PET is used to demonstrate directly the specialization of function in the normal human visual cortex, and provides direct evidence to show that, just as in the macaque monkey, different areas of the human prestriate visual cortex are specialized for different attributes of vision.

Perirhinal and parahippocampal cortices of the macaque monkey: Cortical afferents
Wendy L. Suzuki,David G. Amaral +1 more
TL;DR: The organization of cortical inputs to the macaque monkey perirhinal and parahippocampal cortices is investigated by placing discrete injections of the retrograde tracers fast blue, diamidino yellow, and wheat germ agglutinin conjugated to horseradish peroxidase throughout these areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
The functional logic of cortical connections
Semir Zeki,Stewart Shipp +1 more
TL;DR: Patterns of anatomical connections in the visual cortex form the structural basis for segregating features of the visual image into separate cortical areas and for communication between these areas at all levels to produce a coherent percept.

Functional specialisation in the visual cortex of the rhesus monkey
TL;DR: Anatomical and functional studies of the visual cortex of the rhesus monkey have shown that it is made up of a multiplicity of distinct areas that seem to be functionally specialised to analyse different features of thevisual environment.

Receptive fields and functional architecture of monkey striate cortex
David H. Hubel,Torsten N. Wiesel +1 more
TL;DR: The striate cortex was studied in lightly anaesthetized macaque and spider monkeys by recording extracellularly from single units and stimulating the retinas with spots or patterns of light, with response properties very similar to those previously described in the cat.

Receptive fields and functional architecture in two nonstriate visual areas (18 and 19) of the cat.
David H. Hubel,Torsten N. Wiesel +1 more
TL;DR: To UNDERSTAND VISION in physiological terms represents a formidable problem for the biologist, and one approach is to stimulate the retina with patterns of light while recording from single cells or fibers at various points along the visual pathway.

TL;DR: The opponent principle, in which spatially separated excitatory and inhibitory regions are pitted against each other, has now been observed for retinal ganglion cells in the frog, the lizard, the rabbit, the rat, the ground squirrel, and the monkey.

The representation of the visual field on the cerebral cortex in monkeys.
P. M. Daniel,D. Whitteridge +1 more
TL;DR: On the basis of his extensive and elegant anatomical investigations on the visual cortex, Poliak (1932) suggested that a mathematical projection of the retina on the cerebral cortex must exist and this work has made such a surface, folded it and compared it with the calcarine cortex of the monkey.
