Kritikerstimmen

"[An] entertaining and truly brainy front-line report from the neuroscience labs... I guarantee it'll change the way you think of yourself"
"A fun read by a smart person for smart people... It will attract a new generation to ponder their inner workings"
"Eagleman engagingly sums up recent discoveries about the unconscious processes that dominate our mental life. . . . [He] is the kind of guy who really does make being a neuroscientist look like fun"
"David Eagleman's lobe-spangling new study of how thoroughly our genetic make-up, deep-lying subroutines and chemical changes can affect the submerged mind gives dizzying up-to-the-minute insight as to just whose hand is really on the tiller. . . Incognito is a fascinating book that will not so much turn your mind upside down as flip it right-side up. You'll never hear the phase "You don't know what you're doing!" in the same way again"
"Breezy, fun, optimistic and full of the latest research"
"A dream to read... I couldn't resist telling people about a couple of things I read here" (Brian Clegg)
"Witty, bright, sharp and unexpected... as surprising a book as I've read for years. Every story is a new Heaven" (Brian Eno)
"

Readers may discover much to appreciate - not least the lives they are living now... quirky, occasionally unsettling... never short of new new ideas, all of them rolled out with style

" (Nicholas Tucker)
"Eagleman provides an excellent overview of the workings of our most vital organ" (Ian Critchley)
"***** I was completely immersed. Eagleman writes well and has brought together great stories from the wild shores of neuroresearch, taking a field that is enormously complex and creating a clear path through it... A book that will stay with you" (Michael Mosley)
"A shining example of lucid and easy-to-grasp science writing" (Laurence Phelan)
"A well-written popular science book, with a clear narrative, friendly explanations that respect both the lay-reader's intelligence and their ignorance, and a plethora of weird facts that make you nudge the person next to you and say 'Listen to this!'" (Brandon Robshaw)
"Contains startling revelations. . . beginning with the awesome and shadowy power of the subconscious"
"You will learn a great deal that is fascinating from Incognito"
"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. . . Incognito proposes a grand new account of the relationship between consciousness and the brain. It is full of dazzling ideas, as it is chockablock with facts and instances"
"A bold argument, and perhaps just the beginning of the debate"
"Eagleman's style is accessible and easily understood"
"A fascinating and engaging look at the nature of consciousness... Eagleman brings a concise prose style, historical research and the latest scientific thinking to a book that will have you re-examining the nature of personality and identity"

I really enjoyed this book. it's both entertaining and informative. Alot of the concepts are explained in an intuitive and relatable manner that's easy to comprehend and remember. This how science should be presented to the general audience. My biggest critic is that sometimes the whole book felt like he was laying foundations for us to conclude how we are mostly controlled by the biology and chemistry of our brains in order to promote his ideas for changing the criminal justice system.
I am not for or against his believes or him expressing it, it just felt by the end of the book that I was being manipulated by all the interesting information that are very rational to reach his conclusions and support his advocations. Would have loved a more neutral tone to such a book but it doesn't takeaway alot of credit from Eagelman for he is a very talented researcher and storyteller.

a very good book but..

I loved every bit of this audio book! The author explains a tremendous amount of studies that concern human cognition, behavior and biology. He unmasks many mistakes of the human experience apparatus, discusses ethnic issues, free will and, subconscious patterns. I would 100% recommended this to anybody that is interested to learn about himself, others and human experience in general.

Absolutely fascinating!
