Undeniably brilliant.Big, brash, and a lot of fun.Hugely entertaining&always sparkling and provoking.Witty popular science that you enjoy reading for the writing as well as for the science. No other science writer makes me laugh so much.Alters completely the way one thinks about thinking&its unforeseen consequences probably can't be contained by a book.Pinker has a knack for making the profound seem obvious....A fascinating bag of evolutionary insights. A model of scientific writing: erudite, witty, and clear.
