Embodied

We grow up thinking there are five senses, but forget about the ten neglected senses of the body that both enable and limit our experience.

Embodied explores the psychology of physical sensation in ten chapters , with each sense explored through interviews and case studies of extreme experiences. A final chapter presents a theory of what is common across these ten senses: of how we deal with the urge to act, and what happens when extreme sensation is inescapable.
