What scientific concept would improve everybody's cognitive toolkit? This is the question John Brockman, publisher of the online science salon Edge.org, posed to such scientists and thinkers as Richard Dawkins, Brian Eno, Helen Fisher, Daniel Goleman, Steven Pinker, and V.S. Ramachandran. Their surprising and enlightening insights, presented in 150 brief essays, could revolutionize the way you think about yourself and the world. "A winning combination of good writers, good science and serious broader concerns."—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Edge.org has become an epicenter of bleeding-edge insight across science, technology and beyond, hosting conversations with some of our era's greatest thinkers"—Atlantic Monthly
