Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the relationship between the perceived intensity of haptic sensations, particularly those caused by pressure and impact, and the intensity of the stimuli that cause them. The author, a leading expert in the field, explores various aspects of this relationship, including the quality of the stimuli, the intensity of the sensations, and the accuracy with which individuals can discriminate between different weights. The book also examines the historical context of these investigations, particularly the work of E.H. Weber, and discusses the broader implications of the findings for our understanding of human sensation and perception. Through a series of experiments, the author provides valuable insights into the complex relationship between physical stimuli and subjective experiences, shedding light on the fundamental mechanisms of our sensory systems.
