An exhilarating tour of the most complex technology in the universe: the human brainYour brain is remarkable. Sealed inside the black box of your skull, its only connection to the outside world is the signals that travel through your nerves. From these inputs you gain sight, hearing, touch, taste and more. Change the inputs - for example replacing a loss of hearing with vibrations on your wrist calibrated to the sounds around you - and your brain finds a way to interpret this new input. Your brain can change, rewire and heal, constantly adapting to make sense of the world around you.Covering decades of research and brand new discoveries from Eagleman's own laboratory, Livewired surfs the leading edge of neuroscience and demonstrates the mind-blowing ways in which the brain works.
