商品簡介
The author, a Hungarian physician-biologist-psychologist-philosopher, outlines general theoretical considerations and describes physiological mechanisms associated with viscerosensory phenomena sensations associated with internal organs which occur independently of the traditional senses, and operate largely outside of consciousness. He explores such topics as visceral perception through learning, hemispheric lateralization of signal processing, and visceroception and cognition; appended essays by two other others discuss awareness of sensations arising in the gastrointestinal tract, and learning to perceive previously unconscious stimuli.
