Reviews
'The volume ought to be considered as a starting-point from which to explore further the anthropolgy of the senses.' Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Vol 14, No 2, June 2008 An important, brave and engaging work amply suitable of stimulating further research in the study of the senses. Senses & Society Sensible Objects is successful on a number of levels. It comprises a thought-provoking and enjoyable group of essays that... encourage the reader to consider and question using additional combinations of sound, smell, touch, and taste. -- Emma Martin, World Museum, Liverpool, UK Journal of Museum Ethnography
