Eighteen-year-old Sam has always been jealous of his younger brother, Humphrey, the famous "wonder child" pianist. But now that Humphrey is fifteen, the one-time child prodigy isn't able to get any more bookings. Sam's mother refuses to accept that Humphrey's career is over and devises a scheme to recapture his fame: Sam will compose "new works" by a long dead gypsy composer, and they will tell the world that the composer is dictating the music to Humphrey from the grave. The scheme is a wild success—until some ghostly occurrences convince Sam that the spirit of the dead composer has actually taken over Humphrey's fingers. Have Sam and his family unleashed a force from beyond the grave? At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

SCIENCE: GENERAL ISSUES. What could fingers and sex possibly have in common? What does the shape of a child's fingers reveal about future musical talent? And why should professional footballers have longer fingers than other men? This book is about a simple measurement of the human hand: the 'finger ratio', or the length of the ring finger relative to the index finger. John Manning uses a tiny difference between the sexes - that men tend to have a greater finger ratio than women - to examine a dizzying group of questions about human behaviour, from sexuality, to musical ability, to predisposition to disease. Provocative, intriguing and balanced, John Manning's cutting-edge research poses many fruitful and unusual questions about what makes us as we are.

"The ability of the human index finger to point is truly unique in the animal world. In Michaelangelo's Finger Raymond Tallis shows just how central this seemingly insignificant difference has been in determining the amazing evolutionary pathway of the human being. In this startlingly original and persuasive book, Raymond Tallis shows that it is easy to underestimate the influence of small things in determining what manner of creatures humans are. He reveals that over time the repeated and multiple effects of the seemingly insignificant can make an enormous difference and argues that the independent movement of the human index finger is one such easily overlooked factor. Indeed, not for nothing is the index finger called 'the forefinger'. It is the one we most naturally deploy when we want to winkle things out of small spaces, but it plays a far more significant role in an action unique to us among primates: pointing. In Michelangelo's Finger, Raymond Tallis argues that it is through pointing that the index finger made a significant contribution to hominid development and to the creation of a human world separate to the rest of the natural world. Observing the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel and the hugely familiar and awkward encounter between Michelangelo's God and Man through their index fingers, Tallis identifies an intuitive indication of the central role of the index finger in making us unique. Just as the reaching index fingers of God and Man are here made central to the creation of our kind, so Tallis believes that the simple act of pointing is central to our extraordinary evolution."--Publisher's description.

How do we know how our fingers are oriented in space? Contributions to limb and finger perception include afferent sensory signals from the muscles, joints, skin, as well as vision and other senses, and top-down assumptions about the bodys dimensions. A growing body of literature has examined the perception of finger and hand position and dimensions in a bid to understand how the limbs are represented in the brain. However, no studies have examined perception of the orientation of the fingers. A comprehensive model of highly articulated body parts must include perception of their orientation as well as their position. This dissertation seeks to fill an existing gap in the literature by exploring contributions to finger orientation perception, using a novel line-matching task. In Chapter 3 I provide evidence that vestibular disruption using galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) leads to an inward rotation of perceived finger orientation, and provide some evidence that finger orientation perception may not be accurate at baseline. In Chapter 4 I show that left- and right-handers may have differ- ent strategies for finger orientation perception, and provide evidence for an outward rotational bias that increases as the hands are placed further laterally from the body midline. In Chapter 5, I show that the way the probe line is initially displayed has a significant impact on performance, specifically on asymmetries of responses for the two hands and the compression of responses across the test range. I further show that the outward bias observed in Chapter 4 might be due to order of hand placement and differences in muscle strain across conditions. In Chapters 6 and 7, I show no difference in orientation perception for the ring and index fingers, but find an overall inward rotation of orientation estimates for palm-down hand postures, compared to palm-up postures. My research clearly shows that perceived finger orientation, as measured in my line-matching paradigm, is highly context-dependent. I discuss this in the greater context of the limb perception literature and outline some of the questions which much still be addressed in order to arrive at a comprehensive model of hand and finger perception.
