The Brain with David Eagleman

Dr. David Eagleman takes viewers on an extraordinary journey in "What is Reality?" He explores how the brain, locked in silence and darkness without direct access to the world, conjures up the rich and beautiful world we all take for granted.

In "Who is in Control?" Dr. Eagleman explores the unconscious brain, and reveals that everything from our movements, to our decisions, to our behavior is largely controlled and orchestrated by an invisible world of unconscious neural activity.

In "Why Do I Need You?" Dr. David Eagleman explores how the brain relies on other brains to thrive and survive. This neural interdependence underpins our need to group together, and our ability to do the very best and the very worst of things to each other.
