Olfaction, Taste, and Cognition Book

The human organs of perception are constantly bombarded with chemicals from the environment. Our bodies have in turn developed complex processing systems, which manifest themselves in our emotions, memory, and language. This book presents the first multidisciplinary synthesis of the literature in olfactory and gustatory cognition. Leading experts have written chapters on many facets of taste and smell, including odor memory, cortical representations, psychoph ysics and functional imaging studies, genetic variation in taste, and the hedonistic dimensions of odors.Read More
