Summary:
"A lively and unconventional exploration of
our
senses
, how they work, what is revealed when they don't, and how they connect us to the world. Over the past decade neuroscience has uncovered a wealth of new information about
our
senses
and how they serve as
our
gateway to the world. This splendidly accessible book explores the most intriguing findings of this research. With infectious enthusiasm, Rob DeSalle illuminates not only how we see, hear, smell, touch, taste, maintain balance, feel pain, and rely on other less familiar
senses
, but also how these
senses
shape
our
perception of the world aesthetically, artistically, and musically. DeSalle first examines the question of how perception and consciousness are formed in the brain, setting human
senses
in an evolutionary context. He then investigates such varied themes as supersenses and diminished
senses
, synesthesia and other cross-sensory phenomena, hemispheric specialization, diseases, anomalies induced by brain injuries, and hallucinations. Focusing on what is revealed about
our
senses
through the extraordinary, he provides unparalleled insights into the unique wonders of the human brain." --goodreads.com
