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.

Only bone for my dog
Flavor Name: Chicken, Size: Medium
These are the only bones my dog will chew on. He loves both the chicken and bacon flavored. I just have to watch him as if they get too small I don't let him chew and will give him a new one.

Size information reversed. Smalls are medium and mediums are small.
Flavor Name: Bacon, Size: Medium
I love the product but the description is frustrating. I ordered the medium size bones expecting the 7 inch bones, but recieved the 5 inch bones. Apparently if you want the 7 inch bones you should choose small instead of medium. That makes no sense and is so irritating.

Keep my dog entertained…for a while!!
My dog absolutely loves this toy! I spread a bit of peanut butter on it and he gets so excited every time. It keeps him busy for a few minutes, though he licks it clean super fast. Still a great way to give him a little treat and mental stimulation.
