Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Physics Introductory to Physical Geography
All known matter can be perceived by one or more of the senses. Thus we can see or feel a piece of wood, we can sometimes feel the air, we can smell most gases and some vapors. The perfume of a flower is a vapor, is perceived by the sense of smell, has weight, and is therefore matter.
