"@Trivium21c @ManYanaEd @anniemurphypaul I'm reading it currently. It's a very good read. Great explanations plenty of research points from a variety of perspectives and not story-dominated (a la Gladwell). It makes the current formulation of cognitive science look rather limited and narrow (though still effective)"
