"David Eagleman may be the best combination of scientist and fiction-writer alive."

- Stewart Brand

 

"Eagleman has a talent for testing the untestable, for taking seemingly sophomoric notions and using them to nail down the slippery stuff of consciousness."

- The New Yorker

 

"What Eagleman seems to be calling for is a new Enlightenment."

- Sunday Herald 

 

"David Eagleman offers startling lessons.... His method in both Sum and his new book, Incognito, is to ask us to cast off our lazy, commonplace assumptions."

- The Guardian

 

"[A] neuroscientist and polymath."

- Wall Street Journal

 

"David Eagleman is the kind of guy who really does make being a neuroscientist look like fun"

- New York Times

 

"A popularizer of impressive gusto...[Eagleman] aims, grandly, to do for the study of the mind what Copernicus did for the study of the stars."

- New York Observer

    Our drive to come together into groups yields a survival advantage — but it has a dark side.
