    • How We Became Sensorimotor : Movement, Measurement, Sensation, Paperback by Paterson, Mark, ISBN 1517910005, ISBN-13 9781517910006, Brand New, Free shipping in the US

      The scientific work of identifying and measuring somatic sensations-sensations such as pain, pleasure, and hunger that arise within the body rather than from an external source-has necessitated an inventiveness not only in the building of specialized instruments and apparatus, says Paterson, but also in the conceptual framework, inevitably leading to shifts in terminology between time periods and disciplinary areas. He charts the research since the middle of the 19th century on such matters as pain as a distinct sensation: from psychophysics to affective-motivational pathways; the neuro-motor unconscious: Etienne-Jules Marey, Eadweard Muybridge, and motion capture; and motricity: Merleau-Ponty, motor habit, and the neurology of abstract and concrete movement.
