Item description from seller

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Volume VII, Part 6 brings to a conclusion the Handbook of Sensory Physiology, the publication of which has spanned 9 years. In the General Preface of Volume I it was stated that: 'The purpose of this handbook is not encyclopedic completeness, nor the sort of brief summaries provided by periodic annual reviews. ' The Editorial Board and the editors hope that this golden mean has been achieved: An absorbing, thorough, but nevertheless exemplary presentation should, with the aid of relevant examples, enable the reader to become accustomed with the numerous facets of the sensory system without sacrificing an overview of the subject.
