Phenomena: Secrets of the Senses

Can people really predict the future? What do rats dream about? Is there anything that can help blind people 'see?' These are just a few of the ideas explored in Donna M. Jackson's mesmerizing non-fiction book about sensory perception. With expert writing that is informative and accessible, Jackson helps readers understand the way our minds and bodies interact with the world around us. She explores facts, myths and highly-debated topics like the legitimacy of psychic power and animals' intuition and offers readers 'mind tinglers' to test their own capabilities. With the popularity of everything supernatural, this is a book that lets readers decide what is real and what is just our minds playing tricks on us.
