Publisher's Summary
Why can your foot move halfway to the brake pedal before you're consciously aware of danger? Why do you notice when your name is mentioned in a conversation that you didn't think you were listening to? Why are people whose name begins with J more likely to marry other people whose name begins with J? Why is it so difficult to keep a secret? Renowned neuroscientist David Eagleman navigates the depths of the subconscious brain to illuminate these surprising mysteries. Taking in brain damage, drugs, beauty, infidelity, synaesthesia, criminal law, artificial intelligence and visual illusions.

Mind = blown
This book speaks about a lot of facts that are scary and amusing at the same time. This Internal cosmos is astonishing and makes me wonder, are we really as free as we imagine?

Good
About 60% of the content is the same as in Freewill from Sam Harris. So if u have read that book it feels like a repeat. But overall very insightful.. Enjoyed it

Is it really me, who is making decisions?
Simply great.
This book gives deep insights on - why you do what you do.
The writer, who is also the narrator, has done a fabulous job both in presenting and narrating the book. He has tried to answer the questions that puzzle us with surprising ease. questions such as:
what are we made up of?
why do we fall prey to our desires?
what is consciousness?
what separates us from other individuals and species?
who is sitting behind the wheels of our conscious?
and many more.
The enthusiasm of the author is clearly seen by the way he narrates which imparts character and life to the book, and its a great experience to listen to this master piece.
But beware, once started you won't be able to stop.
