A New York Times New and Noteworthy Book


From the bestselling author of Waking Up and The End of Faith, an adaptation of his wildly popular, often controversial podcast


"Sam Harris is the most intellectually courageous man I know, unafraid to speak truths out in the open where others keep those very same thoughts buried, fearful of the modish thought police. With his literate intelligence and fluency with words, he brings out the best in his guests, including those with whom he disagrees." -- Richard Dawkins, author of The Selfish Gene


"Civilization rests on a series of successful conversations." —Sam Harris


Sam Harris—neuroscientist, philosopher, and bestselling author—has been exploring some of the most important questions about the human mind, society, and current events on his podcast, Making Sense. With over one million downloads per episode, these discussions have clearly hit a nerve, frequently walking a tightrope where either host or guest—and sometimes both—lose their footing, but always in search of a greater understanding of the world in which we live. For Harris, honest conversation, no matter how difficult or controversial, represents the only path to moral and intellectual progress.


This book includes a dozen of the best conversations from Making Sense, including talks with Daniel Kahneman, Timothy Snyder, Nick Bostrom, and Glenn Loury, on topics that range from the nature of consciousness and free will, to politics and extremism, to living ethically. Together they shine a light on what it means to "make sense" in the modern world.

Sam Harris is my go-to voice of reason in these utterly insane times we're living in. I consider myself a moderate, and he's never been afraid to call out both the left and the right, unlike Rogan or Lex Fridman, etc, who are the epitome of audience capture

This guy is a despicable apologist for genocide. I have zero interest in what he has to say. Rogan has more credibility at this point.
