Synopsis
Sensation and Perception, Fourth Edition sets the standard in bringing technical scientific information to a wide range of students with outstanding readability and thorough coverage. Retaining its traditionally clear and accessible writing style, this new edition boasts a thoroughly revised art program and over 1,300 new references. The motion chapter now focuses solely on visual motion perception, so it appears earlier in the text. In addition, the book includes thirteen In-Depth sections, each of which explore a current “hot” research topic to provide a sense of how researchers ask questions with subjects varying from the role of face recognition in eyewitness testimony to phantom limb perception. Above all, this text is written by two professors who have received national awards for their teaching. It features strong pedagogy, abundant student-friendly examples, and an engaging conversational style.
