How are sights and sounds and smells converted into electrical
signals in a form that can be interpreted by the nervous system?
Although this process, called sensory transduction, began to be
understood only relatively recently, so much progress has been made
that it is now possible to say at least in outline (but in most
cases in remarkable detail) how transduction occurs for all of the
major sense organs of the body. Since the first edition was
published in 2003, many new experiments have radically changed some
of our previously-held views.This new edition fulfils the book's
original aims, both as an accessible textbook and a general
introduction to the senses, by bringing the contents fully up to
date with the new information acquired over the last 15 years. In
so doing, it continues to provide a comprehensive survey of one of
the greatest achievements of modern biology and neuroscience - the
unravelling of the mechanism of sensation. Sensory Transduction is
written for advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and
researchers in neurophysiology and sensory neuroscience. It is also
of relevance and use to a broader audience of neuro, evolutionary,
integrative, and comparative biologists.
