In this fun, easy-to-read-even-for-a-nonscientist book, Lawrence Rosenblum explores the ways in which our five senses interact and commingle. We don't just taste flavors, we also see, touch, and smell them. Nor do we need sight for things like biking and baseball—blind athletes can use hearing in its place. Drawing on great stories of people who use their senses in seemingly unusual ways, Rosenblum makes the case that understanding the science of perception can help us enhance our own ability to take in all the sights, sounds, tastes, smells, and touches in the world around us.
