An exploration of how perception, thought, and action are products of maps etched into your brain-and how technology can use them to read your mind. Your brain is a collection of maps. That is no metaphor: scrawled across your brain's surfaces are actual maps of the sights, sounds, and actions that hold the key to your survival. 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. Brain maps distort our experience of the world, shape how we think and imagine, and open the door to mind-reading technologies. Their idiosyncrasies shine a light on our past and offer clues to our possible futures. 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 world-and about the world's place within us. Praise for Brainscapes "A profoundly illuminating account of how the brain works.... Rebecca Schwarzlose is a neuroscientist with a novelist's literary flair." -Cass R. Sunstein, author of Too Much Information "Deeply enjoyable and thoroughly researched.... Schwarzlose's presentation of cutting-edge science is consistently accessible and precise." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) " Brainscapes will change how you think about the brain and how you understand your own mind." -Tali Sharot, author of The Influential Mind
