摘要

动物的脸对它们在生活环境中发挥作用至关重要。对于哺乳动物来说，脸通常是感觉器官的位置，因此提供了在“世界”中生存的主要方式(“世界”是特定生物体所经历的世界)。哺乳动物的脸也是非语言交流和表达的重要部位，传递着广泛的情感和社会信息;对于人类和许多其他灵长类动物来说，脸也是个人身份的关键。面部的特殊意义很可能是灵长类动物大脑中有多个面部选择皮层区域的原因，人类最著名的区域是梭状脸区

What’s in a face? Introducing the special section on Face Science.

The faces of animals are central to their functioning in lived environments. For mammals, faces are usually the location of the sense organs, and thus provide the primary way of living in umwelten1 (umwelt is the world as experienced by a particular organism). Mammalian faces are also an important location of non-verbal communication and expression, and convey a wide range of emotional and social information; for humans and many other primates, faces are also key for personal identity. The special significance of the face is likely the reason that the brains of primates have multiple face-selective cortical areas, the most well-known region in humans being the fusiform face area.2

期刊介绍： The South African Journal of Science is a multidisciplinary journal published bimonthly by the Academy of Science of South Africa. Our mandate is to publish original research with an interdisciplinary or regional focus, which will interest readers from more than one discipline, and to provide a forum for discussion of news and developments in research and higher education. Authors are requested to write their papers and reports in a manner and style that is intelligible to specialists and non-specialists alike. Research contributions, which are peer reviewed, are of three kinds: Review Articles, Research Articles and Research Letters.
