CUTANEOUS SENSITIVITY: A REVIEW OF SOME LITERATURE, PROBLEMS AND APPROACHES.

Abstract

The review embraces some of the research on cutaneous sensitivity which has been reported, for the most part, within the last 15 years. The major emphasis is upon reports of a fundamental nature. Several areas of research have been ignored completely; such as tactile communications and pain. Part 1 is a conventional review of reports, briefly outlining apparatus, procedures and findings. Part 2 is an attempt to show where data from different experiments appear to be, or not be, consistent, and it discusses the problems and difficulties that confront the scientist engaged in cutaneous research.
