Dr. David Eagleman: neuroscientist, best-selling author












 "I don't know if I have a smart answer. I had a former girlfriend who would always dress in her best outfit whenever she felt down. It made her feel better. I always felt it was a smart decision on her part." 




Dr. Eagleman's book "Icognito: The Secret Lives of the Brain," was on the New York Times Bestseller list for 15 weeks. His fiction work, "Sum," is being turned into an opera by the Royal Opera House in London.   (Houston Chronicle photo)
