Incognito: The Secret Lives of the Brain de David Eagleman

This book felt like visiting the science center when I was in 6th grade: the vase/face image, zigzag illusions, and discussion of the blind spot in everyone's field of vision.

Sum: Forty Tales from the Afterlives de David Eagleman

This felt very much like Alan Lightman's "Einstein's Dreams", except that this book's theme is death while Lightman's theme is time. Very good read, some of the stories I will need more time to mull over, while others pop into my head throughout the day and make me smile.
