Publisher's Synopsis
Sam Harris is one of the most famous popular thinkers of our day. 'Being Sam Harris' challenges the central ideas of Sam's work. Ranging through philosophy, logic, history, religion and the science of neuro-imaging, and more. Sam is accused of being a one trick charlatan. A disingenuous showman who uses the technique of Singularity to generate a kaleidoscope of logically flawed and socially dangerous ideas. Despite their neo-liberal hippy patina, Sam's recipes for life demand suicide for the Self. All that remains is the autodidactic, synthesist benevolence of being Sam Harris.
