Livewired: The Inside Story of the Ever-Changing Brain

Why isn’t “memory’s enemy” time—but other memories? How can a blind person learn to see using their tongue, or a deaf person to hear using their skin? Why, in the 1980s, did many people incorrectly think that book pages were slightly tinted red? Can we ever control robots with our minds? Why do we dream at night, and how is it connected to Earth’s rotation?

The answers are right nearby. The greatest technology hides inside your head, and this book by the well-known neuroscientist David Eagleman will tell you about it. You’ll understand that the magic of the brain isn’t in its components—but in how they continuously interact, intertwine, and change.
