Inner Navigation: Why We Get Lost and How We Find Our Way

by Erik Jonsson, Donald A. Norman
$38.90
Inner Navigation: Why We Get Lost and How We Find Our Way
Inner Navigation: Why We Get Lost and How We Find Our Way

Decoding subconscious mapmaking and spatial orientation.

If you've ever marveled at the delicate dance of navigating sprawling cities or the wilderness, "Inner Navigation" is a book for you. Erik Jonsson demystifies the mental processes behind our sense of direction, drawing from both scientific insights and personal experiences. It's a delightful read that may just change how you perceive your own daily travels and the unseen mechanisms your brain uses to guide you.
