In Brainscapes, Rebecca Schwarzlose combines unforgettable real-life stories, cutting-edge research, and vivid illustrations to reveal brain maps’ surprising lessons about our place in the worldand about the world’s place within us. In the process, they invite us to view ourselves from a startling new perspective. Rebecca Schwarzlose wrote Brainscapes about the maps that our brains make to help us make sense of the world. Rebecca Schwarzlose - Brainscapes: The Warped, Wondrous Maps Written in Your Brain And How They. They shine a light on our past and our possible futures.

Scientists first began uncovering these maps over a century ago, but we are only now beginning to unlock their secrets-and comprehend their profound impact on our lives.
