Reading in the Brain: The New Science of How We Read"Brings together the cognitive, the cultural, and the neurological in an elegant, compelling narrative. A revelatory work." Oliver Sacks, M. D. The act of reading is so easily taken for granted that we forget what an astounding feat it is. How can a few black marks on white paper evoke an entire universe of meanings? It's even more amazing when we consider that we read using a primate brain that evolved to serve an entirely different purpose. In this
"Brings together the cognitive, the cultural, and the neurological in an elegant, compelling narrative. A revelatory work."-Oliver Sacks, M.D. The act of reading is so easily taken for granted that we forget what an astounding feat it is. How can a few black marks on white paper evoke an entire universe of meanings? It's even more amazing when we consider that we read using a primate brain that evolved to serve an entirely different purpose. In this riveting investigation, Stanislas Dehaene explores every aspect of this human invention, from its origins to its neural underpinnings. A world authority on the subject, Dehaene reveals the hidden logic of spelling, describes pioneering research on hiw we process languages, and takes us into a new appreciation of the brain and its wondrous capacity to adapt.

As described—great for exfoliating and saving soap bits
Scent: Graphite Gray_4 Pcs
These myHomeBody soap pockets are exactly as described. They work well for exfoliating in the shower and are especially handy for using up leftover soap bits. The mesh is just rough enough for a good scrub without being too harsh on the skin. The graphite gray color looks nice and doesn’t stain. The included lift pads are a nice bonus to keep bars dry between uses. Great value for a practical 2-pack.
Q&A Section:
Q: Are these gentle enough for daily use?
A: Yes, the mesh exfoliates effectively but is still comfortable on the skin for daily use.
Q: Can you fit a full bar of soap inside?
A: Absolutely—fits full-size bars or small leftover pieces.
Q: What are the lift pads for?
A: They keep your soap elevated and dry between uses to extend its life.
Q: Do the pockets lather well?
A: Yes, they create a good lather and help stretch out your soap use.

Nice for the price
Scent: Graphite Gray_4 Pcs
I thought they would be really rough when I got them, but they softened up. You get a nice scrub without being too rough.
They are well built and look like they should last.
They lather up well too
Very happy with this purchase
