Critical Reviews
Undeniably brilliant.-- "Newsday"
Big, brash, and a lot of fun.-- "Time"
Hugely entertaining...always sparkling and provoking.-- "Wall Street Journal"
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.--Mark Ridley "New York Times Book Review"
Alters completely the way one thinks about thinking...its unforeseen consequences probably can't be contained by a book.--Christopher Lehmann-Haupt "New York Times"
Pinker has a knack for making the profound seem obvious....A fascinating bag of evolutionary insights.-- "The Economist"
