Description
"A path-breaking journey into the brain, showing how perception, thought, and action are products of "maps" etched into your gray matter-and how technology can use them to read your mind"--,Provided by publisher.
Description
Your brain is a collection of maps: actual maps of the sights, sounds, and actions that hold the key to your survival. Scientists first began uncovering these maps more than a century ago, but we are only now beginning to unlock their secrets, and comprehend their profound impact on our lives. Schwarzlose shows how brain maps distort and shape our experience of the world, support complex thought, and make technology-enabled mind reading a modern-day reality. -- adapted from jacket
