Review
“An ideal introduction to how biology generates the mind…. structured around crucial and wide-ranging questions, saturated with per- sonal and social relevance. And Eagleman’s answers are consistently clear, engaging and thought-provoking.” — Nature
“David Eagleman’s wide-ranging roundup of the current state of knowledge about the brain is concise, accessible and often very surprising. It’s a strange new world inside your head.” — Brian Eno
“David Eagleman’s The Brain its an astonishing read. On every page there is a revelation so fantastic as to make one gasp. It would be impossible to take in if we didn’t all possess that impossibly extraordinary thing, a brain. Eagleman comes closer than anyone to solving the mystery of how to find the self inside the grey electric mush between our ears.” — Stephen Fry
“David Eagleman makes it easy to comprehend the most complex collection of cells in the Cosmos – our brain. If neuroscience had a rock legend this would be him.” — Ruby Wax
