The study of the senses has become a rich topic in recent years. Senses of Vibration explores a wide range of sensory experience and makes a decisive new contribution to this growing field by focussing not simply on the senses as such, but on the material experience - vibration - that underpins them. This is the first book to take the theme of vibration as central, offering an interdisciplinary history of the phenomenon and its reverberations in the cultural imaginary. It tracks vibration through the work of a wide range of writers, including physiologists (who thought vibrations in the nerves delivered sensations to the brain), physicists (who claimed that light, heat, electricity and other forms of energy were vibratory), spiritualists (who figured that spiritual energies also existed in vibratory form), and poets and novelists from Coleridge to Dickens and Wells. Senses of Vibration is a work of scholarship that cuts through a range of disciplines and will reverberate for many years to come. Cover photograph courtesy of Andrew Davidhazy.

How do our human senses work and help us interact with our surroundings, and what happens when these senses malfunction or are impaired? This book provides in-depth information that answers these questions and more. The Five Senses and Beyond: The Encyclopedia of Perception supplies students and general readers with accurate, up-to-date information about the human senses. It explains the "big five" senses in detail as well as lesser-known but important senses—perceptions such as balance, kinesthesia, temperature, and pain. After a helpful introduction, this reference work provides A-to-Z, cross-referenced entries on hundreds of topics in the realm of human perception that allow students to find and digest information quickly and draw connections between related topics. Through the use of activity sidebars, readers will also be able to explore the workings of the senses firsthand, lending an element of interactivity to this accessible encyclopedia. A convenient end-of-volume glossary provides definitions of unfamiliar terms.

Through continued collaboration and the sharing of ideas, data, and results, the international community of researchers and practitioners has developed an understanding of many facets of the human response to vibration. At a time when the EU is preparing to adopt a directive on health risks arising from occupational exposure to vibration, Human Response to Vibration offers authoritative guidance on this complex subject. Individual chapters in the book examine issues relating to whole-body vibration, hand-arm vibration, and motion sickness. Vibration measurements and standards are also addressed. This book meets the needs of those requiring knowledge of human response to vibration in order to make practical improvements to the physical working environment. Written with the consultant, practitioner, researcher, and student in mind, the text is designed to be an educational tool, a reference, and a stimulus for new ideas for the next generation of specialists.

Bringing together neural, perceptual, and behavioral studies, The Merging of the Senses provides the first detailed review of how the brain assembles information from different sensory systems in order to produce a coherent view of the external world. Stein and Meredith marshall evidence from a broad array of species to show that interactions among senses are the most ancient scheme of sensory organization, an integrative system reflecting a general plan that supersedes structure and species. Most importantly, they explore what is known about the neural processes by which interactions among the senses take place at the level of the single cell.The authors draw on their own experiments to illustrate how sensory inputs converge (from visual, auditory, and somatosensory modalities, for instance) on individual neurons in different areas of the brain, how these neurons integrate their inputs, the principles by which this integration occurs, and what this may mean for perception and behavior. Neurons in the superior colliculus and cortex are emphasized as models of multiple sensory integrators.

These brief articles are easy to read whenever you have a few minutes for some inspiration and motivation. To help you take full advantage of José Silva's wisdom and advice, the book includes instructions on how to enter the alpha brainwave level, and also includes many of the Silva problem-solving techniques to help you change your life for the better. José Silva Jr. provides commentary throughout the book to help put the work into perspective. He made sure the course material is exactly the way his father wanted it. Not many people throughout history can claim to have started with so little, come so far, and achieved so much. José Silva had lost his parents by the time he was 6 and went to work instead of going to school. He began to study psychology – the study of human behavior – when he was 30 years old, and soon expanded his research to include the brain and mind. The mind did not reveal its secrets to him easily. He persisted, investing his own time and money, continuing even though critics scorned him. Today he is recognized as the leading researcher in the world in the field of the mind and human potential. And José Silva’s UltraMind ESP System is leading humanity into the beginning of the second phase of human evolution on the planet. His ultimate achievement was developing a reliable technique to use your ESP to obtain guidance and support from higher intelligence to develop creative solutions for vexing problems.

In creatures as different as crickets and scorpions, mole rats and elephants, there exists an overlooked channel of communication: signals transmitted as vibrations through a solid substrate. Peggy Hill summarizes a generation of groundbreaking work by scientists around the world on this long understudied form of animal communication. Beginning in the 1970s, Hill explains, powerful computers and listening devices allowed scientists to record and interpret vibrational signals. Whether the medium is the sunbaked savannah or the stem of a plant, vibrations can be passed along from an animal to a potential mate, or intercepted by a predator on the prowl. Vibration appears to be an ancient means of communication, widespread in both invertebrate and vertebrate taxa. Hill synthesizes in this book a flowering of research, field studies documenting vibrational signals in the wild, and the laboratory experiments that answered such questions as what adaptations allowed animals to send and receive signals, how they use signals in different contexts, and how vibration as a channel might have evolved. Vibrational Communication in Animals promises to become a foundational text for the next generation of researchers putting an ear to the ground.

Earth is a place of education on physical experience. These teachings of Chung Fu offer guidelines for finding one 's own higher self.Under the Plum Tree originated from trance teachings by a Fourth Century BPE colleague of Chuang Tze at private homes internationally between 1974-1977. The sessions described the bases for present day tao disciplines such as tai chi, feng shui and martial arts. Students at the readings tended to be spiritually evolved and were experiencing their final earthly reincarnations.The spiritual self is the strongest essence within your world. Your higher self has had experience of everything upon your plane. In one way or another each of you experienced everything that you hear, touch, taste or smell before you could become your physical body. You have been sound, you have been brass and you have been tree or cat or dog. You have been buffalo or bird. Not in the immediate past one or two lifetimes but maybe 50,000 lifetimes ago. You have, within your higher self, the electro-magnetic communicating system of all living things and all energy in your plane.When you project a visual element with your higher self, it includes empathy with the birds, with the elements, with all things, because it has been all things. This is important. You are the grass. You are the tree. You are the air, the fire, the water and the earth. You, your body, is water. It is earth, it has minerals and chemicals within it.It is air, for it cannot live without breathing. It is fire, for it is warmth and without the sun it could not live.You are all things, but in the ignorance of your subconscious mind you let the water, the air, the fire and the earth rule your life. You let every situation with people, with plant and flower, organize and project your actions. You let the automobile tell you what to do, but it is an element, mineral, metal, not your higher self.Spiritual projections are not utopian ideas. They are practical tools for individual control of your life. He who projects forward and allows the spiritual self from the higher force to go into the world daily, weekly or monthly, or even to a meeting or business situation, controls his life. Only beauty will come forward, for the subconscious does not rule when a spiritual being is projected.Ah, to smell the color, to hear the plant, to feel sound, to taste music, to see sound. Each of the senses interrelates upon a scale. The ancient masters, those whom you know as myths, Odin or Isis, Vishnu or Zeus, were great masters who taught the inner way, not the outer. Your higher self holds all your answers, can solve all your problems, and can do for you whatever you wish.
