Wie viele Sinne hat der Mensch? Die klassischen fünf? Oder sechs? Oder sieben? Vielleicht noch mehr? Jüngste Forschungen haben gezeigt, dass wir eigentlich mindestens 32 Sinne haben. Die preisgekrönte Wissenschaftsautorin Emma Young nimmt uns mit auf eine aufregende sensorische Reise und verrät, wie wir Dinge schmecken, ohne unsere Zunge zu benutzen, warum Fluchen gut für uns ist und warum sowohl Schokolade als auch Achterbahnen uns helfen können, uns zu verlieben.

Supersinne enthüllt die Wissenschaft, die hinter Fähigkeiten von blinden Ballerinas, Vodoo Priesteren und einer Krankenschwester, die Parkinson riechen kann, bevor die Krankheit diagnostiziert wird, steckt. Wie können wir alle lernen, unsere Sinne besser zu nutzen? Kann mehr Sensibilität uns glücklicher, gesünder oder gar reicher machen? In diesem Buch finden Sie die Antworten.

Supersentidos
Uma investigação científica e reveladora sobre os nossos sentidos — todos os 32. Você já parou para pensar em como sente que algo perigoso está por perto? Ou o que é senso de direção ou instinto? Se perguntarmos a qualquer pessoa quais são os nossos sentidos ela responderá sem pensar: audição, visão, olfato, paladar e tato. Mas pesquisas recentes mostram que, na verdade, temos pelo menos 32. A premiada escritora e jornalista científica Emma Young passou mais de uma década pesquisando sobre os sentidos do ser humano e agora revela a ciência por trás dessas habilidades. Em Supersentidos, a autora nos guia por uma jornada sensorial singular, revelando, por exemplo, como saboreamos as coisas sem usar nossa língua, por que xingar faz bem e por que chocolate e montanhas-russas podem ajudá-lo a se apaixonar. Sem a compreensão dos nossos sentidos, não compreenderemos a forma fundamental como reagimos ao mundo exterior e interior. Supersentidos vai levar você por uma jornada pelos nossos sentidos e as coisas surpreendentes que eles podem fazer por nós. Você também descobrirá que ninguém sente o mundo da mesma forma — e essas diferenças podem influenciar preferências, personalidade, relacionamentos, saúde e até mesmo a carreira que escolhemos. E até mesmo por que o toque pode aliviar a dor e por que a música "Dancing Queen" do Abba soa diferente na Bolívia. Compartilhando histórias surpreendentes de como uma bailarina cega conseguiu se adaptar e criar um novo método de ensido de dança e até mesmo uma enfermeira que consegue sentir o cheiro da doença de Parkinson antes de ser diagnosticada, Supersentidos revela a ciência por trás dessas habilidades que nos tornam humanos. E oferece lições fascinantes sobre como podemos aprender a usá-las a nosso favor. Descubra a fascinante ciência que move os seus sentidos e como aproveitá-los ao máximo nesse livro inovador e instigante. "Fascinante... desvenda os segredos maravilhosos de nosso cérebro e de nosso corpo." - Daily Mail
