- p.xxii: the URL edge.sagepub.com/schwartz3e should be edge.sagepub.com/schwartzsp3e
 - p.9: in the caption of Figure 1.6: “Perception is the process of converting physical stimuli, such as light and sound energy, into neural signals within our sensory organs.” should be “Sensation is the process of...”
- p.113: “Grunert et al., 2020” should be “Grünert et al., 2020”; also, the full paper by Grünert et al. (2021) confirmed that the superior colliculus gets most of its connections from the parasol retinal ganglion cells (i.e., M-cells, not via the K pathway)
