内容説明・目次
内容説明
With balanced coverage of all the senses, this volume offers a comprehensive examination of sensation and perception. By looking into how all the senses work together, Goldstein is able to show readers how seemingly simple experiences are actually extremely complex reactions. The author examines both the psychophysical and physiological underpinnings of perception, presenting both in a way students should find interesting and easy to follow. Also included are hands-on demonstrations, providing perceptual experiences that illustrate some of the principles discussed in the text.
