A journey into the brain, showing how perception, thought, and action are products of 'maps' etched into your gray matter â and how technology can use them to read your mind.
What The Reviewers Say
Schwarzlose, a neuroscientist at Washington University in St. Louis, writes with the zeal of an enthusiastic teacher yearning to share her passion with her students. For the most part she succeeds. Her prose is lively. She jettisons scientific jargon.
A thorough delineation of neural representations, or brain maps, that affect our sensory, motor, cognitive, and emotional capacities.
Neuroscientist Schwarzlose debuts with a fascinating deep-dive into the 'remarkable maps' in the human brain.
