Organ Speak by Giulia Enders and Jill Enders

A$35.99

In a world that is becoming ever louder and more complicated, sometimes the answer is to look inward. For thousands of years, our bodily organs - from our muscles to our brain - have faced problems and found their own unique ways to overcome them. What can we learn from these intricate systems? In Organ Speak, Giulia Enders guides us through our inner landscape, revealing how our body is our best teacher: what, for example, can the immune system teach us about our need to feel safe? How does the process of wound-healing mirror emotional recovery? Why do our brain's reward pathways favour unpredictability? What do we truly need to thrive? Blending recent scientific discoveries with her gift for making complex ideas accessible, Giulia Enders inspires a deep appreciation for something that is both intimately familiar yet profoundly mysterious. A sense of wonder opens the journey, and by the end we gain a renewed understanding of ourselves.
