Fundamentals of Sensory Perception
"A fresh and modern look at sensory processing. . . a pleasure to read. I particularly enjoyed that the book did not begin with the visual system, as virtually every other book does. The introductory chapter explains some difficult psychophysical concepts very well."--Stephen G. Lomber,Universityof Western Ontario"A good mix of history, biology, and psychology [with] better coverage of psychophysics and the physiology of each sensory system than any other book currently available."--Deborah Giaschi,University of British Columbia"It is one of the better texts that I have reviewed."--Erik Tracy,Ohio State University"Reading the author's foreword convinced me that I might be a better choice to start lecturing first about the chemical senses before attacking the more complex (and better studied) modalities of vision and audition!"--Alan Stocker,University of Pennsylvania"I really could not find a major weakness. . . It is current, comprehensive, and well-written."--Benjamin Wallace,Cleveland State University"Very engaging, well organized, and thought-provoking. . . Frankly, I haven't found any weaknesses. . . The explanations of difficult topics in this text are perfect for students who may not be mathematically or natural sciences oriented (without sacrificing rigor). . . Sensation and Perception is a fun and important psychological topic. This text captures and conveys this well."--Steven W. Horowitz,Central Connecticut State University
