Next book -- Cool!

Read Now
 
[Note on Dec 7 2018: The book changed it's name. Tentatively now titled FLUSH: How Emotional Expressions Are Bets.)

Happy to announce that the next book is on its way, this one a collaboration with my brilliant 2ai colleague Tim Barber: SURVIVAL of the COOLEST: How Poker is the Secret to Life, Emotions, Cool and Everything

As usual for my books, it's a grand unifying theory, easy reading for anyone, and hopefully funny! This is quite the change-up from my previous books. Not theoretical biology. Not visual perception. Not language. Not harnessing-related. Now it's emotion and cool, all the way down. 

Tim and I had an intuition that we could explain why we have the emotion engine we have, and explain it from first principles. ...and that somehow poker was crucial. But it took us around eight years to pull all the strings together, push the pieces into place, flatten out the shag carpet, etc.

And, there will be some bonus material more akin to the "x-ray" topic in Vision Revolution, but rather than seeing through leaves or one's muzzle, it's about seeing through...one's emotion! It's like the extra bit of cheesecake on the back or your fork you forgot to eat!
