“Most people tend to think that the mind is in the head. But the latest discoveries of physiologists indicate that in fact it is not completely concentrated in the brain, but wanders throughout the body with caravans of hormones and enzymes, hardworkingly comprehending the whole fusion of miracles that we are accustomed to calling “touch”, “taste”, “ smell”, “hearing” and “vision”. In this book I intend to explore the origin and evolution of sensation; the difference in their conscious perception in dissimilar cultures; the rank of each of them in the system of sensations; their role and place in folklore and science; sensation-related idioms that we use to talk about the world around us. This book will surely bring joy to people.”
