Abstract

This volume (Davis & Balfour 1992; Davis 1993) concerns the bond that forms between experimental subject and experimenter. One needs to view such an edited volume as a means of communicating to researchers outside the area that such a field of study exists and to those engaged in the field itself that there are others who share similar interests. This volume should serve the purpose of identifying a field of study and acting as a heuristic for further research.
