Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. From the mating calls of chorus frogs to insect olfaction to elephant funerary rites to the memory-rich tastes of place, Sensoria offers an immersion in the sensual experiences of seeing, hearing, touching, tasting, and smellingand their interactions, combinations, and more-than-human manifestations.
