INCOGNITO

A sparkling and provocative book on neuroscience from the author of "Sum: Tales From The Afterlives". Eagleman navigates the depths of the subconscious brain to illuminate surprising mysteries: Why can your foot move halfway to the brake pedal before you're consciously aware of danger ahead? Why is it so difficult to keep a secret? And why are people whose names begin with J more likely to marry other people whose names begin with J?
