Reviews
In recent years, there has been a lot written about religion, superstition, and faith, but there has never been a book like this. . . SuperSense is a joy to read--beautifully written, deeply clever and funny, replete with brilliant insights and observations., A compelling account of how beliefs in the supernatural world spring from the natural way our minds make sense of our experiences., Supersense is a terrifically fun read.But it is much more: though we may forever believe in ghosts, goblins and the beneficent deities, with a dose of skeptical scientific realism, a la Hood, there is hope that sanity will prevail. (Marc Hauser, Harvard College Professor, author of Moral Minds), Magical thinking is a defining feature of the human mind - the source of all that is sublime and absurd about our species. In this timely exploration of the psychology of irrational belief Bruce Hood pulls off the rare feat of being both authoritative and wonderfully entertaining.

Gelman, author of The Essential Child Read this beautifully written book, and you will lose some childhood innocence about how the world works.
