“I am excited to use this textbook in my Sensation and Perception class. Information is presented in an engaged, familiar manner, and the authors use consistent characters and examples across chapters, which makes the text very easy to read. This writing style will allow students to understand traditional approaches and ecological approaches to perception equally, something that no other text does. This is a top-notch presentation of modern approaches to understanding perception. Even more, Blau and Wagman argue that sensing and perceiving are things that we do and not just things that happen to us, which is both novel and sure to spark student interest. The combination of coverage, writing style, and high-level execution makes this a textbook that will deepen any reader’s appreciation for perception.”Brian Day, Associate Professor of Psychology, Butler University. “This textbook is a breath of fresh air for sensation and perception courses that provides a rigorous exploration of the ways organisms get to know the environment through their senses. And, even better, this is combined with an account of an ecological alternative to the mainstream views in the field. It is the perfect source to gather fundamental knowledge of sensation and perception as well as to understand the main theoretical positions and experimental results in their study. This book is a gamechanger both for students and professors interested in how we see, hear, and touch the world.”Vicente Raja, Ramón y Cajal Research Fellow, Department of Philosophy, Universidad de Murcia (Spain)
