This book tells the amazing story of perception — how experiences are created by your senses and how you use these experiences to interact with the environment. You might be surprised to know that although perception is easy — we see, hear, feel touch, and experience taste and smell without much effort — the mechanisms that create perceptions are both extremely complex and hidden from our view. SENSATION AND PERCEPTION unravels these complexities by taking you on a journey that describes perceptual research in a clear easy-to-understand way, and by linking the results of this research to your everyday experience. The text is supported by beautiful color illustrations, a media program that makes perception come alive (in the MindTap digital learning solution), and learning aids to help you understand and remember what you have read.
