Sinopsis

Touch Textures explores the often-overlooked sense of touch, revealing the intricate science behind our tactile experiences. From the nerve receptors in our skin to the brain's complex processing, this book delves into how we perceive and interact with the world through texture. Readers will gain a new appreciation for the diversity of both natural and artificial textures, understanding how tactile perception influences everything from product design to our emotional well-being.

 
The book begins by grounding readers in the fundamentals of tactile science, examining skin anatomy and neural pathways. It then progresses to detailed analyses of specific textures, categorized as either natural (like fur or bark) or artificial (such as sandpaper or glass). Each texture profile includes insights into its physical properties and real-world applications.

 
Did you know that our sense of touch was crucial for survival and adaptation or that microscopic images can reveal each texture's unique properties? By taking a multidisciplinary approach, Touch Textures distinguishes itself, blending scientific rigor with practical applications in design, therapy, and environmental awareness. This integrated perspective highlights the value of texture knowledge and promotes a deeper sensory experience.

    Water Borne - A 1200-Mile...

    In June 2023, writer Dan Rubinstein lashed camping gear to his stand-up paddleboard and embarked on an improbable solo voyage from Ottawa to Montreal, New York City, Toronto, and back to Ottawa along the rivers, lakes, and canals of a landlocked region. Over 1,200 miles and 10 weeks, he explored the healing potential of “blue space” — the aquatic equivalent of green space — and sought out others drawn to their local waters.
    		 
    But the farther Rubinstein paddled, the more he realized that being in, on, or around water does more than boost our mental and physical health and prompt stewardship toward the natural world. He discovered that blue spaces are also a way to connect with the kaleidoscopic cross-section of people he met and the diverse geographies and communities he passed through.
    		 
    Weaving together research, interviews, and an unmacho, malodorous, anticolonial adventure tale, Water Borne shows us that we don’t need an epic journey to find solutions to so many modern challenges. Repair and renewal may be close at hand: just add water.
