“Truth always forces its way into rational minds.” – Jonathan Swift

In this third and final part in the latest series, I’d like to go back to the beginning. Despite the fact that we’ve been around for quite some time, not a lot is known about how we came to be who we are.

Who knew maps had so much to say or it was possible to predict divorce through smiles? Clearly, the mind’s job is just beginning.
