Reviews
"Brilliant insights and clarity to help you see yourself better and identify when your perceptions might be spot-on -- or leading you far astray. Perceptual Intelligence couldn't be more timely for the chaotic world of today." -- "Dr. Phil" McGraw, host of Dr. Phil " Perceptual Intelligence shows how reality can be altered in a person's mind. . . . Did wearing the same pair of socks in every decathlon I was ever in help me become a champion? I think so -- and my individual perception of that 'reality' is all that matters." -- Caitlyn Jenner, author of The Secrets of My Life "We are constantly bombarded with mixed messages that can greatly influence our thinking. As such, it is very timely for Dr. Brian to address the important concept of perception. Perceptual Intelligence is a great first step in helping us understand how and why we perceive things the way we do, with the ultimate goal of making better decisions in our lives." -- Dr. Travis Stork, ER physician and host of The Doctors "I loved reading Dr. Brian's book. Perceptual Intelligence is the magic that comes from preparation coupled with experience." -- Apl.de.ap, multi-Grammy-winning musician, Black Eyed Peas "A terrific and intelligent great read infused with unexpected sly humor. . . . Dr. Brian's revelations will astonish you!" -- Victoria Principal, actress, entrepreneur, and founder of Principal Secret "We can close our eyes and envision ourselves being victorious, or we can allow the floating images in our heads to make us do gullible and foolish things. Perceptual Intelligence has the power to help people find the champion and truth teller within themselves." -- Apolo Ohno, eight-time Olympic medalist, "With his new book, Dr. Brian Boxer Wachler expands our view of human perception by showing us that a new science is emerging -- one that holistically integrates the many factors that influence our beliefs, and decision making." -- Montel Williams "Perceptual Intelligence is a uniquely nuanced examination of the power and pitfalls of perception. This book will delight all who seek a greater understanding of how we view the world and the perceptions that influence every aspect of our lives. It would be hard to find a better guide into this fascinating topic than Brian Boxer Wachler. His synthesis of the many factors that shape our perceptions will change the way you think about your own life. I will be one of many healthcare professionals who will immediately recommend this book to colleagues and patients alike." -- Andrew Ordon, MD, "America's plastic surgeon," cohost of the The Doctors , and author of Better in 7: The Ultimate 7 Day Guide to a Brand New You "My esteemed colleague Brian Boxer Wachler is expanding our view of human perception. Combining a surgeon's precision with the power and fluency of a gifted writer, Dr. Boxer Wachler challenges us to consider the space between what we understand intellectually and what we feel experientially, the later of which remains resistant to any deep scientific analysis, yet factors greatly in our experience of the world." -- Khawar Siddique, MD, MBA, award-winning, board-certified neurosurgeon
