Description
How you decide if you can drive through a snowstorm? How high you are willing to climb up a ladder to change a lightbulb? Grafton accounts for the design and workings of the action-oriented brain in synchronicity with the body in the natural world, and shows how physical intelligence is inherent in all of us -- and always in problem-solving mode. He demonstrates the relevance of physical intelligence with examples that each of us might face -- whether the situation is mundane, exceptional, extreme, or compromised. -- adapted from jacket
