Description
|
|
|
|
In this heavily illustrated companion volume to the National Geographic television series Brain Games, optical illusions and brainteasers help explain the workings of the human brain in a direct, interactive way. In three sections—Seeing, Thinking, and Being—scientists and other experts reveal why these illusions and experiments hoodwink the brain, from describing how the structure of the eye influences what you see to examining how the mind can create a false memory.
