Sensory Systems
While this book was started by myself, it now contains chapters written by 18 other authors. It gives a comprehensive overview over sensory systems. Thereby not only the physiological aspects are covered, but also ways of simulating these systems with computers, and - for humans - ways of technically substituting for deficient sensory end organs (e.g. cochlear implants). Recently it has been expanded to include more information about sensory systmes in non-primates (spiders, fish, insects, ...). --Thomas.haslwanter (discuss • contribs) 16:13, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I've gone through the book myself to finally put an end to this blankness here, and some problems I've found:


 * The navigation contain "underscores", which doesn't seem professional for a featured book.
 * Not a lot of pictures, may bore readers.
 * Comma problems (Run-on sentences):
 * "In general, bitterness is very interesting because a large number of bitter compounds are known to be toxic , so the bitter taste is considered to provide an important protective function".
 * "The Gustatory System, or sense of taste , allows us to perceive different flavors from substances like food, drinks, medicine etc. Molecules that we taste , or tastants , are sensed by cells in our mouth, which send sendS information to the brain."
 * ([])
 * "The free receptors, or type 4 joint receptors , are nociceptors"
 * (https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Sensory_Systems/Somatosensory_System#Joint_receptors)
 * Navigation for "Sensory Systems/Other Animals" looks unfit for a featured book: "Birds,Fish..." - That's something you'd usually see in developing books.
 * "In a dipole (the arguably most elementary magnet), the northern and southern poles are the sources of the field"
 * (https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Sensory_Systems/Other_Animals#The_geomagnetic_field)
 * HUGE paragraphs, blocks of texts.


 * Though very little things for such a huge book, I don't expect a featured book to have this many problems in it. I may have high standards, but hey, an opinion is an opinion! --Atcovi (Talk - Contribs) 12:56, 7 February 2017 (UTC)
