Sensation and Perception
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-138-09386-7 (ISBN)
In this new edition Bates has built on Foley and Matlin’s core text to add updates focusing on multisensory integration, neural plasticity, and cognitive neuroscience, as well as real-world examples and practical applications of psychological phenomena. The sixth edition retains the clear organization of previous versions, covering a wide range of core topics, from skin senses such as touch to chemical senses such as taste and smell, to our complex visual and auditory sensory systems.
This book is essential reading for undergraduates and postgraduates studying courses on sensation and perception.
Hugh J. Foley received his BA from St. John Fisher College (1971) and his PhD in Experimental Psychology from Stony Brook University (1985). He taught at Union College and Skidmore College, from which he retired in 2015. He has broad interests in perception, with a focus on psychophysics and object perception. Mary Bates is a science writer based outside Boston, MA. She specializes in writing about the brains and behavior of humans and other animals. She completed her PhD in psychology at Brown University, where she studied bat echolocation.
