This is one of the best sensory text books I’ve used through college and into my career. The value of this text is that it clarifies industry based sensory evaluations and provides sensory sheets and data pages that can be used for sensory projects. It may be gone some in rank on sensory theory, but its value is in how it can be applied to a matter-of-fact setting.

I have collected a variety of Sensory materials (articles, manuals, books, etc.) through the years, and I hadn’t found a book more complete and updated than this one. It has extremely helpful tips for Sensory leaders, from building a Sensory Lab to Multivariate Statistical techniques you can apply. As Sensory Analyst, I highly urge this book either for students or professionals.

If you have to design a sensory panel, project, or even just the place where it will happen…this is the book to reference.
It helps to know how to go from writing the test up, question and form examples, to how to question the data–gotta like statistics, and even interpret.
This is a handy book to have on hand. It’s very clear and has a excellent table of contents and a pretty excellent index to help get you to what you’re looking for.
