Author Description

Imagine that there's a way for people with amputated limbs to truly believe that their limbs have grown back. Imagine that you can simply think yourself to better health. Imagine that full sugar products are better for health than "diet" products. No need to imagine. All of these scenarios are true. You can find out why this is the case in this book. Ranging from why we see ghosts, to why the concept of gender fluidity is flawed, to why companies that sell probiotic drinks are a con...you will see humanity in a new light! Drawing on contemporary research from the fields of Visual Science, Neuroscience, and Food Science, discussions explore how these systems influence not just human behaviour, but also society. Both the systems themselves, and the interactions between them, are important.
