520 1 $a"This volume presents a new theory of olfactory perception. Drawing on research in neuroscience, physiology, and ethology, Donald A. Wilson and Richard J. Stevenson address the fundamental question of how we navigate through a world of chemical encounters and provide a compelling alternative to the "reception-centric" view of olfaction." "Learning to Smell will serve as an important reference for workers within the field of chemical senses and those interested in sensory processing and perception."--BOOK JACKET.
