Making up the Mind
by Chris Frith
Chris wrote this not as an academic book but to help the ordinary layperson understand the way our brain works. He writes, "Even if all our senses are intact and our brain is functioning normally, we do not have direct access to the physical world – it may feel as if we have direct access but this is an illusion."
