A Beautiful Mind (June 2011)
David Eagleman is an assistant professor of neuroscience at Baylor College of Medicine, in Houston, and a recent recipient of a Guggenheim fellowship. His latest book, Incognito: The Secret Lives of the Brain, comes out at the end of the month. Though Eagleman specializes in the fields of time perception and neuro-law, he is best known for his fiction. His 2009 collection of linked short stories, "Sum: Forty Tales From the Afterlives," was a best seller in the United Kingdom, where it is being turned into an opera. Camera by Brian Birzer
