As indicated in the Preface, the contributions to this volume are
based upon the papers presented at the symposium on Thermoreceptors
and Temperature Regula tion held in July 1988 at the Institute of
Physiology of the University of Marburg (Federal Republic of
Germany) to celebrate and commemorate the life and achievements of
HERBERT HENSEL, who directed that Institute from 1955 until his
death in 1983, and whose most notable and significant contributions
to thermo physiology were in the areas of the properties and
characteristics of thermo sensors, mammalian thermoregulation more
generally, and the psychophysiology of ther mal sensation. All the
papers in this volume deal, to a greater or lesser extent, with
these discernibly different but closely allied aspects of mammalian
physiology. The editors have sought to achieve cohesion, flow, and
balance both in the contributed articles and in their order of
presentation, without either large gaps or redundancies in the
coverage of the recent advances in the understanding of
thermoreceptors and thermoregulation. At the same time we have
sought to avoid such a degree of editorial control as to destroy
the individuality of the contributions, and the judgements upon
which they were based. We have also sought to look both backwards
and forwards, and to include some legitimate extension of the con
sideration of thermosensitivity and thermoregulation into such
areas as climatic adaptation and fever. Hence the "greater or
lesser" of the closeness of this series of papers to HERBERT
HENSEL'S scientific interests.
