Abstract

(1851 is the year here sometimes wrongly assigned to the publication of E. H. Weber's seminal paper, "Der Tatsinn und der Gemeingefühl" [The touch sense and common sensibility/feeling], first published in a handbook of physiology in 1846.) Here, another recent book (again appearing too late for Paterson's use) covers similar ground in great detail: Andreas Mayer, I The Science of Walking i (2020). What I think is most valuable in the chapter, an approach to the muscle sense as a modality among a complex of bodily senses, is rather lost sight of. [Extracted from the article]
