"A pair of neuroscientists investigate how magic tricks (which they call "the art of manipulating attention and cognition" and "mental jujitsu") hack our mind's natural pattern-making structures, and in doing so, shine a light on how our whole perception of the world is really more like a projection of our imagination onto data. Each chapter goes over a different set of illusions, biases, etc that are active in magic" — Nov 23, 2014 10:30PM

"At the end of the 1800s, William James - father of psychology and the philosophy of pragmatism - assembled a team of scientists to study reports of ghostly experiences. Each member of the team had a different reason to be obsessed with the subject. This book provides a fascinating look at the American Spiritualist movement, and the time when scientists first began clashing over how to approach the supernatural." — Nov 12, 2014 10:14PM
