SinopsisDr. David Eagleman is a neuroscientist and director of the Laboratory for Perception and Action at Baylor College of Medicine. Incognito asks the question "If the conscious mind - the part you consider to be you - is just the tip of the iceberg, what is the rest doing?" As a neuroscientist, he begins by offering mind-boggling statistics about the human brain: "Your brain is built of cells called neurons and glia - hundreds of billions of them. Each one of these cells is as complicated as a city. There are as many connections in a single cubic centimeter of brain tissue as there are stars in the Milky Way galaxy. The first thing we learn from studying our own circuitry is a simple lesson: most of what we do and think and feel is not under our conscious control. The conscious you is the smallest part of what's transpiring in your brain. Your consciousness is like a tiny stowaway on a transatlantic steamship, taking credit for the journey without acknowledging the massive engineering underfoot.
