This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts discussed in this book. The book contributes to the multiple ways in which the senses are filtered through emotion, cognition and environment. Mobilizing human and animal sensibilities are intrinsic components of militarization. From the moment war is declared, the sensual worlds of all protagonists are marshalled to the cause. Precisely because war purposefully mobilizes, assaults and then destroys sentient life, it provides a unique context within which to study the senses. Wartime experiences are extreme, highlighting the complexity of human and animal feeling-states. The book also emphasizes the importance of culture in collaborating in the creation of physiological bodies. Perception of the senses always occurs in social worlds, filtered through the prism of the entirety of a person's lived experiences, including their sensual physiologies, emotional states, cognitive beliefs and relational standing in various communities.
