{"product_id":"world-of-touch","title":"World of Touch","description":"\u003cp\u003eFor the first time, David Katz's classic monograph \u003ci\u003eThe World of Touch\u003c\/i\u003e has been translated into English. Regarded as one of the premiere experimental psychologists, Katz vigorously opposed the atomism and \"tachistoscopic\" mentality typical of the sensory psychology of his day. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In \u003ci\u003eThe World of Touch\u003c\/i\u003e, Katz sought to dispel the invidious distinction between the supposedly higher (e.g., vision, audition) and lower (e.g., touch) senses. To help touch regain its original prominence in the field, Katz demonstrated, through very simple, yet creative experiments, how fascinating the abilities of touch are, and how valuable the tactual stimulus can be in specifying objects, surfaces, substances, and events. In addition, Katz emphasized the importance of higher-order invariants in the perception of objects, and the holistic quality of perception in time as well as space.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54236453568856,"sku":"9780805805291","price":192.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780805805291.jpg?v=1768464030","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/world-of-touch","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
