[bksvol-discuss] Book wish: You were Here

This sounds like a great book.

YOU ARE HERE: Why We Can Find Our Way to the Moon, But Get Lost in
   the Mall, by Colin Ellard (Anchor, $15.) Ellard, a behavioral
   neuroscientist, believes that our mental maps of the physical world
   have become sparser over the course of human evolution; people are
   hopelessly disconnected from their setting. He also describes animals'
   impressive navigational skills and discusses the design of public
   spaces in this delightful, clearly argued book.
