Synopsis
This book is a scientific investigation into the human perception of sound. The author delves into the effects of a first sound on our interpretation of a second sound played immediately afterward. Through experimentation, it has been discovered that our brains often adjust their interpretation of sound volume based on what came before. This and other effects, both expected and novel, are explored through rigorous scientific methodology. The author provides a compelling argument against previous scientific consensus on the subject, with particular attention paid to the concept of "contrast effect". This book offers valuable insight into the fundamental question of how humans perceive the world, and the ways in which our senses are constantly influencing each other.
