Book Review: "Perception" By Dennis Proffitt

"Over decades of study, University of Virginia psychologist Dennis Proffitt has shown that we are each living our own personal version of Gulliver’s Travels, where the size and shape of the things we see are scaled to the size of our bodies, and our ability to interact with them. Stairs look less steep as dieters lose weight, baseballs grow bigger the better players hit, hills look less daunting if you’re standing next to a close friend, and learning happens faster when you can talk with your hands."

A wonderful and intellectual insight into the mind and body from a unique perspective that creates thoughtful reflection long after you close the book.

Dennis truly has done his research and it shows with each chapter that looks into a varied array of interests and how that mindset either builds up or tears down the way one moves forward with courage, tenacity, and raw will power.
I truly enjoyed Perception -How Our Bodies Shape Our Minds and hope you find this review appealing.

Thank you to Dennis, the pub, NetGalley, and Amazon Kindle for this ARC in exchange for this honest review.
