Fülszöveg



The ability of birds and other animals to navigate successfully through unknown territory has long been an object of fascination and the subject of serious study. From Australian aboriginal wanderers to Polynesian seafarers, human beings are also known to perform extraordinary feats of navigation. Yet, until Dr. Robin Baker began his controversial research in 1976, no one had ever attempted to discover how people, lacking even a simple compass, find their way across unfamiliar terrain.
Human Navigation and the Sixth Sense is the first account of the dramatic experiments that confirm the existence of a magnetic sense of direction in humans. In clear, nontechnical language, Dr. Baker explains the unusual methods of his investigation and discusses his discovery and its implications: why men have a better-developed magnetic sense than women; why the ability is an unconscious one; how people, past and present, use it; and why he would be surprised if he had not found it.

Already the subject of rigorous debate among animal behaviorists, Human Navigation and the Sixth Sense is a thought-provoking exploration of a neglected element of human nature. "Packed with fascinating details about how we navigate" {Science Digest), this book is sure to excite students, general readers and scientists alike. Vissza
