    Everyone knows you have just five senses, right? Think again!

    From sensing temperature to keeping your balance – even knowing when you need to pee – your body is constantly sending messages to your brain about the world inside and around you. Senses reveals how these messages are created, how your brain processes them, and how you can explore them through fun experiments and challenges, either on your own or with friends.

    What is a “sense”? What happens when you mix them together – or pull them apart? What amazing things can animals sense that we can’t? Discover how sound can change how things taste, what part your culture plays in the way you literally see the world, and how in turn your personality, thoughts, and relationships are shaped by the way you perceive your surroundings.

    This book uncovers the weird and wonderful world of your senses – as you’ve never experienced them before.
    We believe in the power of discovery. That's why we create books for everyone that explore ideas and nurture curiosity about the world we live in.
     
    From first words to the Big Bang, from the wonders of nature to city adventures, you will find expert knowledge, hours of fun and endless inspiration in the pages of our books.
