Inner Navigation: Why We Get Lost and How We Find Our Way by Erik JonssonISBN: 0743222067
Publication Date: 2002-02-19
Written for the nonscientist, Inner Navigation explains the array of physical and psychological cues the brain uses to situate us in space and build its "cognitive maps". Humans, Jonsson explains, also possess an intuitive direction frame that keeps these maps oriented and a dead-reckoning system that constantly updates our location on the map as we move through the world. Even the most cynical city-dweller will be amazed to learn how much of this innate sense we use every day as we travel across town.
