SUMMARY |
The sense are our guide to the world, keeping us out of danger and directing us to pleasure. But how sensitive and accurate are they? And just how intense a sensation can we bear? On a global assault course for the senses, our chief volunteer must endure many a sensory extreme - from the foulest smell to the hottest chilli pepper, while other, unsuspecting 'volunteers' will unwittingly demonstrate just how easily our senses can be misled. We will also meet the sensory superstars of the animal kingdom, who can help to explain the biological roots of our own senses. |
