  1. 1. Mind Hacks

    Tips and Tricks for Using Your Brain

    A lively, hands-on guide to how the brain perceives, thinks and errs, offering simple demonstrations, experiments and everyday examples that reveal the mechanisms behind perception, attention, memory, language and decision-making. Combining clear neuroscience explanations with practical “hacks” — visual illusions, memory tricks, attention tests and reasoning puzzles — it shows how cognitive quirks shape behavior and can be used to probe mental processes. Playful and accessible, it equips readers to observe, test and better understand their own minds.
