Do you dream in colour? Do you have an inner voice? Do you 'see' images in your mind's eye?
We can never see inside another person's mind. Some see vivid mental images and can replay entire conversations word for word. Others experience only blankness or silence when they close their eyes. Uncovering your own mental quirks can take some detective work; the only way to find out what it's like to be you is to ask someone else what it's like to be them.
Neuroscientist Patrick House reveals the surprising variations in our individual imaginations. He explores the many ways our unique processing of the world shapes who we are and what we like. Subjective Realities offers us a new way to connect with others and understand how we relate to the world. In this elegant and concise book, House argues that there's tangible value in taking the time to discover the nitty-gritty details of other people's minds, and our own.
