AB This  section  deals  with  pain  and  somatic  sensations,  all  derived  mainly  from  afferent  impulses  that  arise  in  the  organs,  skin,  blood  vessels,  connective  tissues,  muscles,  and  joints.  Because  of  its  overriding  clinical  importance,  pain  has  been  accorded  a  chapter  of  its  own.  The  special  senses—vision,  hearing,  taste,  and  smell—are  considered  in  the  next  section,  and  visceral  sensation,  most  of  which  does  not  reach  consciousness,  is  considered  with  the  disorders  of  the  autonomic  nervous  system.
