Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First edition. Octavo. 368pp. Ownership signature of a noted American psychologist on the front fly. Corners and spine ends a bit worn, near fine in a very good dust jacket with the delicate pink spine titling and blocking completely sunned, and with a bit of spi…ne rippling and wear at the spine ends. An uncommon neuroscience text that had a major impact on Marshal McLuhan's theory of amputations and extensions. To quote Richard Cavell in *McLuhan in Space: A Cultural Geography* (U Toronto Press, 2002): "It was McLuhan's encounter with Adolphe D. Jonas's *Irritation and Counterirritation: A Hypothesis about the Autoamputative Property of the Nervous System* that concretized McLuhan's theory that sensory extension was simultaneously amputation." (N.B. In the *OCLC* entry, the author is given as "David Jonas.").
