This article is surprisingly tiny. Irving Biederman is a major neuroscientist who's Recognition by Components Theory which proposes geons as primary components of vision, is still regarded as an important and elemental theory of human vision. This article should be developed to incorporate that extent into the Wikipedia encyclopedia. I know little about this scientist's personal history, but for those with an interest in personal biography, this would be an important inclusion. Biederman's work rests on the earlier work of David Marr who died prematurely at around 40 years old. But Biederman's theoretical proposal is a major part of human vision science, which is still in early stages of scientific explanation... Stevenmitchell (talk) 20:33, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
