votre nez ? Pour vous en convaincre et redécouvrir la magie du monde, il suffit d'appliquer la méthode proposée par Alexandra Horowitz : arpenter le pavé celui de New York en l'occurrence en compagnie d'un spécialiste d'un domaine particulier, et voir à travers ses yeux des facettes inédites du quotidien. Partagez ainsi l'affût de ce spécialiste de la biodiversité, pour croiser les ratons laveurs et les coyotes (!) qui ont envahi la ville. Avec ce géologue, observez les traces des dernières glaciations dans les schistes de Central Park. Suivez les premiers pas du fils de l'auteure et repérez ces formes et ces couleurs que nous avons cessé de voir. Partez à la reconquête de vos sens guidés par cet aveugle, ce médecin, cet acousticien, etc. À la façon d'un Jean Claude Ameisen, Alexandra Horowitz profite de ces balades buissonnières pour décortiquer les mécanismes de la perception et de lattention celle qui nous fait si souvent défaut en exploitant des expériences troublantes de psychologie et les derniers résultats des neurosciences. Poète, savante et aventurière urbaine, elle confirme son statut d'écrivain à suivre attentivement. " -- 4e de couv.
