Herr Dr. Schnoerr:

I tried to e-mail you, but it bounced.

The book you want is "The Retina: An Approachable Part of the Brain",
by John Dowling.  Research articles by Koh,C. and Sherman, M. will be
helpful too.

I can send more info if you e-mail _me_ so we can get this address
problem straight.  (Sorry to the rest of the networld for having to
read this.)

Jim
