Über diesen Titel

How can a blind person learn to see with her tongue or a deaf person learn to hear with his skin? What does a baby born without a nose tell us about our sensory machinery? Might we someday control a robot with our thoughts? And what does any of this have to do with why we dream?

The answers to these questions are not right in front of our eyes; they're right behind our eyes.

This book is not simply about what the brain is but what it does. Covering decades of research to the present day, Livewired also presents new findings from Eagleman's own research, including new discoveries in synaesthesia, dreaming and wearable neurotech devices that revolutionise how we think about the senses.

This book taught me a lot about how the brain works and doesn’t work.
It’s introduced me to a few interesting new ideas and combined things I heard before. For example, that each brain is a snapshot of what the human experienced during their brief life time and hence reflects what it has experienced at specific locations and times. Each brain is thus different and associates pieces of information differently. Following from that, everyone necessarily learns differently based on previous exposure to the world. David introduced seven interesting principles of the brain’s livewiring. Great book for everyone who’s interested in the brains functioning.

Livewired is a useful new way to view how the brain works

es sind einige interessante Informationen in diesem Buch, aber am ende waren es für mich zu viele unnötige Metaphern und Wiederholung.. eher ein philosophisches als ein wissenschaftliches Werk.

naja
