The study of the senses has become a rich topic in recent years. Senses of Vibration explores a wide range of sensory experience and makes a decisive new contribution to this growing field by focussing not simply on the senses as such, but on the material experience - vibration - that underpins them. This is the first book to take the theme of vibration as central, offering an interdisciplinary history of the phenomenon and its reverberations in the cultural imaginary. It tracks vibration through the work of a wide range of writers, including physiologists (who thought vibrations in the nerves delivered sensations to the brain), physicists (who claimed that light, heat, electricity and other forms of energy were vibratory), spiritualists (who figured that spiritual energies also existed in vibratory form), and poets and novelists from Coleridge to Dickens and Wells. Senses of Vibration is a work of scholarship that cuts through a range of disciplines and will reverberate for many years to come. Cover photograph courtesy of Andrew Davidhazy.

Download Edgar Cayce on Vibrations Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Science caught up with the psychic readings of Edgar Cayce when it proved that all of materiality - consisting of atoms and therefore protons, neutrons, and electrons - is energy in motion. Everything is a vibration. Even the body's five senses operate through the use of vibrations. The Cayce readings suggested that vibrations were also associated with healing, consciousness, and even locations. In fact, the Cayce information presents the premise that all of life in every dimension is actually just different manifestations of the One Force - the Force that moved all of Creation into being. Therefore, all vibration is ultimately that One Force manifesting in the material world in a variety of ways. Todeschi's latest title explores how everything from consciousness to the material is connected to vibration, and how we continue to create and shape our world through the vibrations all around us. Vibrations are essentially spirit in motion and our thoughts and actions affect our life and the way we are living.

Download Human Response to Vibration Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Through continued collaboration and the sharing of ideas, data, and results, the international community of researchers and practitioners has developed an understanding of many facets of the human response to vibration. At a time when the EU is preparing to adopt a directive on health risks arising from occupational exposure to vibration, Human Response to Vibration offers authoritative guidance on this complex subject. Individual chapters in the book examine issues relating to whole-body vibration, hand-arm vibration, and motion sickness. Vibration measurements and standards are also addressed. This book meets the needs of those requiring knowledge of human response to vibration in order to make practical improvements to the physical working environment. Written with the consultant, practitioner, researcher, and student in mind, the text is designed to be an educational tool, a reference, and a stimulus for new ideas for the next generation of specialists.

Download Vibrational Communication in Animals Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
In creatures as different as crickets and scorpions, mole rats and elephants, there exists an overlooked channel of communication: signals transmitted as vibrations through a solid substrate. Peggy Hill summarizes a generation of groundbreaking work by scientists around the world on this long understudied form of animal communication. Beginning in the 1970s, Hill explains, powerful computers and listening devices allowed scientists to record and interpret vibrational signals. Whether the medium is the sunbaked savannah or the stem of a plant, vibrations can be passed along from an animal to a potential mate, or intercepted by a predator on the prowl. Vibration appears to be an ancient means of communication, widespread in both invertebrate and vertebrate taxa. Hill synthesizes in this book a flowering of research, field studies documenting vibrational signals in the wild, and the laboratory experiments that answered such questions as what adaptations allowed animals to send and receive signals, how they use signals in different contexts, and how vibration as a channel might have evolved. Vibrational Communication in Animals promises to become a foundational text for the next generation of researchers putting an ear to the ground.
