About the book

David Eagleman invites the reader on a fascinating exploration of the brain processes that occur outside our consciousness. Incognito reveals how the brain performs complex calculations, makes decisions, and directs our behavior long before our conscious mind is aware.

Through intriguing clinical cases, cutting-edge neuroscience research, and engaging narratives, Eagleman challenges the idea that we are fully in control of our actions. The book offers a renewed understanding of free will, identity, and morality, showing how our unconscious is as intelligent—and sometimes more so—than our conscious mind.
