A compelling argument for including the human perspective within science, and for how human experience makes science possible.“This is by far the best book I've read this year.”—Michael Pollan, Professor of the Practice of Non-fiction, Harvard University; #1 New York Times bestselling authorIt’s tempting to think that science gives us a God’s-eye view of reality.

The Blind Spot goes where no science book goes, urging us to create a new s
