This week on the national, weekly public radio series . . . 

Sense of Touch (Starting October 6) This week's host Dr. Fred Goodwin 
explores how we use sense of touch to learn, why infants fail to thrive
without 
touch, and the mind/body connection behind the therapeutic use of massage.
Plus, 
how touch can make you more charismatic and from "Don't touch" to "Please
touch" 
- tactile art you're meant to feel. Dr. Goodwin's guests include Dr.
Tiffany 
Field, director of the Touch Research Institute, University of Miami
Medical 
School; Dr. Susan Lederman, director of the Touch Laboratory Queen's
University 
in Ontario; Dr. Shelby Taylor, adjunct professor of psychology at the 
California State University, Fullerton; Ann Cunningham, a tactile artist
and teacher 
at The Colorado Center for the Blind; Greg Wong, a student of Ann 
Cunningham's; and Julie Deden, director of The Colorado Center for the
Blind. Also 
featured is a report by Devorah Klahr on an infant massage class offered
free of 
charge to parents of premature infants. Plus, John Hockenberry on what
he's 
learned about sense of touch by living with a spinal cord injury that's
led to the 
loss of sensation through much of his body. Click here to read more about
