Summary:

Long regarded as the gold standard in sensation and perception texts, E. Bruce Goldstein's SENSATION AND PERCEPTION has helped more than 100,000 students make the connection between perception and physiology. Goldstein has crafted an easier-to-understand, and more student-friendly book, without sacrificing the text's comprehensive examination of sensation and perception. Goldstein takes readers on an intriguing journey through their senses, and chronicles scientists' efforts to understand the fascinating behind the scenes activity that allows us to perceive.With balanced coverage of all senses, this book offers an integrated examination of how the senses work together. Goldstein shows readers how seemingly simple experiences are actually extremely complex mechanisms and examines both the psychophysical and physiological underpinnings of perception. All material is presented in a way students find interesting and easy to follow. The book's visually dynamic presentation includes numerous color plates that are presented as visual topic essays. In addition, more than 50 hands-on demonstrations illustrate perceptual experiences. All are simple enough for students to do and are seamlessly integrated into the flow of the text.

Good condition! Good deal!

Book was in good condition...save me a lot of $$$ on buying the new edition...

good info; bad presentation
Customer Rating:  Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2

Make no mistake; the author is clearly a smart man who knows what he is talking about. Unfortunately, this book does a horrible job with the overall presentation, making it difficult to understand. I have had several textbooks throughout college and I find this to be one of the most boring textbooks I have ever encountered. I only wish that the author would bring this book to someone to fix out the format and layout in order to make it a more interesting, understandable read. All textbooks give over tons of information; pick one that is not so incredibly boring.

Great book for a confusing topic
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

I took a sensations and perceptions psychology class last year, and suffice it to say, I was in over my head. My teacher did a horrible job at explaining things and his notes were even worse. When I got this book, I thought it was a god-send. Goldstein explained all the topics in such a clear and concise manner that I found myself wondering why I didn't understand it before. Turns out the topic wasn't so hard to understand, it just takes great talent to explain it in a good way. Fortunately, Goldstein has that talent. I learned so much from the book, which was also interesting to read.

I have had Dr. Goldstein for this class...
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

Even though I am an Architectural Studies at Pitt, I nevertheless found myself in Dr. Goldstein's Sensation and Perception class this summer. I think the book is excellent and truly conveys Dr. Goldstein's personality. He is a fun guy, and an expert on the subject. He shares many of his "tips" for understanding sensation and perception to those of you who aren't fortunate enough to hear him lecture.

Very well-written in REAL language, great diagrams.

One of the few texts I saved from college
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

I have the 4th edition of this fine text, and it is a terrific reference. Any time I have a question about my senses, I turn to this book. If you've ever wondered how it is that you perceive sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch, this is really informative. It thoroughly describes the "input devices" (skin, eyes, ears, etc.) and how they interact with the CPU (brain).

If you don't need it for class, buy it used. If you do need it for class, don't sell it back for beer money.
