Read this. It’s a Discover magazine article about sensory substitution. I read it when it first came out and it led me to study psychology. It’s a good example of the level of detail present in Discover’s articles, which are short enough that you can get through the magazine in a few hours. The only downside of a healthy Discover habit is the urge to constantly spout science factoids, which, depending on the company you keep, will either make you a social pariah (me in high school) or, if you hang out with the writers of Convoke, normal.
If I could recommend one magazine, it would be Discover.
