A New York Times New and Noteworthy Book From the bestselling author of Waking Up and The End of Faith an adaptation of his wildly popular often controversial podcast ?Sam Harris is the most intellectually courageous man I know unafraid to speak truths out in the open where others keep those very same thoughts buried fearful of the modish thought police. With his literate intelligence and fluency with words he brings out the best in his guests including those with whom he disagrees.? -- Richard Dawkins author of The Selfish Gene ?Civilization rests on a series of successful conversations.? ?Sam Harris Sam Harris?neuroscientist philosopher and bestselling author?has been exploring some of the most important questions about the human mind society and current events on his podcast Making Sense. With over one million downloads per episode these discussions have clearly hit a nerve frequently walking a tightrope where either host or guest?and sometimes both?lose their footing but always in search of a greater understanding of the world in which we live. For Harris honest conversation no matter how difficult or controversial represents the only path to moral and intellectual progress. This book includes a dozen of the best conversations from Making Sense including talks with Daniel Kahneman Timothy Snyder Nick Bostrom and Glenn Loury on topics that range from the nature of consciousness and free will to politics and extremism to living ethically. Together they shine a light on what it means to ?make sense? in the modern world.
