Fearfully and Wonderfully Made: The Astonishing New Science of the Senses

This book explores groundbreaking sensory developments in science that inspire readers to tap into their sensory superpowers. In 2016, scientists proved humans could see light at the level of a singular photon. We now live in a time where we can observe the universe’s fabric in a lab. Other recent discoveries reveal our ability to hear subatomic amplitudes, smell trillions of scents, taste molecules of fresh water, and feel the difference of a single molecule through touch. This book takes readers through their bodies, exploring the molecular and quantum aspects of our sensorium. It tells the story of our sensory Renaissance and shows readers how to enhance their senses and experience the miraculous.
