These tetra chromatic women actually see colors that others can’t. ![]() We learn that 15% of women have four color receptors, not three like the rest of us. Incognito is a book of answers and a book of questions. This writer has no science or medical background yet even he could understand (mostly) Eagleman’s text about our most current understanding of the human brain, a marvel of the universe that has begrudgingly revealed some its secrets to investigators and kept hidden so many more. Alien hand syndrome is one of many brain conditions detailed by David Eagleman in his heady book about the brain, Incognito. It could also be an actual manifestation of alien hand syndrome, a side effect of split brain surgery in which one hand has a mind of its own. Something out of a Jim Carey movie? Perhaps. It’s a ridiculous scenario, a man fighting with himself on a public sidewalk, one arm struggling with the other as the poor man screams at the offending hand over which he seems to have no control. As the offending hand draws the stolen éclair towards the horrified man’s mouth, his other hand grabs the arm with the éclair grasping hand and tries to force it back.

After Meghan and Harry’s Oprah interview, the Queen issued a statement with Buckingham Palace, where she stated that “recollections may vary” over Meghan and Harry’s claims. Oprah later confirmed on CBS This Morning that Meghan and Harry never shared the identity of the royals who had concerns over Archie’s skin color but they did confirm that it wasn’t Queen Elizabeth II or Prince Philip. “That was right at the beginning: ‘What will the kids look like?'” “That conversation I’m never going to share. He did, however, reveal that the conversation happened “early on” in his relationship with Meghan.

The first step for you is to take a look at your topic. The press's acquisitions editor, the expert readers to whom the press sends the manuscript for evaluation, and the editorial board will all be evaluating not only the validity of your argument and the depth of your research, but also the book's potential appeal to a substantial number of educated lay readers outside a narrow field of interest. To guard against an immediate rejection, you'll need to spend a lot of time rethinking and reworking your manuscript. Because they receive so many unrevised dissertations a year, most editors can spot one soon after opening the package.
