Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an extensive compendium of research concerning the sensations and sensibility of the human alimentary canal. It contributes to a scholarly dialogue that began with the initial investigations by Weber in 1846. The author's interest in the wider physiological, psychophysical, and psychological aspects of the subject led him to conduct a series of experiments to determine the dependence of sensory experience upon the intensity of stimulus at different locations within the esophagus and stomach. The research presented in this book challenges the earlier hypothesis of Lennander, who claimed that the internal organs, including the stomach, are entirely insensitive. The author presents evidence which demonstrates that not only are the internal organs sensitive to thermal, mechanical, electrical, and chemical stimuli, but the type and quality of the sensation can be localized in specific regions. The author further discusses the relationship between the quality of sensation and the intensity of the stimulus, noting the conditions under which the sensations are experienced as painful. This book's findings contribute significantly to our understanding of the sensibility of the internal organs and provide new insights into the complex systems that mediate our internal experiences. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780428840648_0
