| Remember books? Squareish, non-backlit things that promise deep dives into a world of information—information that's not broken up into little bits that pop up onto your screens? The things that make you think about something you hadn't before? Like, wait a minute, why do humans freak out when they get lost? Or who invented the wheel, anyway? Or maybe even stuff beyond our world, like space and the crazy things it can do to the human body. These are the types of books we've been enjoying lately, and we think you will too. That's why this week, we've compiled some of our favorite excerpts from books about the world outside our lockdown quarters. We hope they'll teach you some cool new stuff—and maybe even inspire some optimism too. Remember that? Ricki Harris | Associate Editor, WIRED |
