Recensioner i media
“There is much to admire in Keller’s book. It is a clear and engaging presentation of much recent research on olfaction and could help to bring the interest and puzzles of olfaction to a wider audience. … it does a very good job even if there is, as one would suspect, still more to do.” (Barry C. Smith, Chemical Senses, Vol. 42, September, 2017)
