Sharpen your mind, reframe your perspectives, and unleash your full human potential.RD Laing presented madness as a voyage of discovery that could open out onto a free state of higher consciousness, or hypersanity. But if there is such a thing as hypersanity, then mere sanity is not all it’s cracked up to be, a state of dormancy and dullness with less vital potential even than madness. We could all go mad, in a way we already are, minus the promise. But what if there was another route to hypersanity, one which, compared to madness, was less fearsome, less dangerous, and less damaging? What if, as well as a backdoor way, there was also a royal road strewn with petals and sprayed with perfume?This is a book about thinking, which, astonishingly, is barely taught in formal education. Our culture mostly equates thinking with logical reasoning, and the first few chapters examine logic, reason, their forms, and their flaws, starting with the basics of argumentation. But thinking is also about much more than logical reasoning, and so the book broadens out to examine concepts such as intelligence, knowledge, and truth, and alternative forms of cognition that our culture tends to overlook and underplay, including intuition, emotion, and imagination.If Hypersanity fails to live up to its tall promise, it should at least make you into a better thinker. And so you can approach the book as an opportunity to hone your thinking skills, which, in the end, are going to be far more important to your impact and wellbeing than any facts that you could ever learn. As BF Skinner once put it, ‘Education is what survives when what has been learnt has been forgotten.’Burton guides the reader to unlearn, rediscover, and return to wholeness. It is a journey out of Plato’s cave… —The International Review of BooksI've read many Neel Burton books. He's a wonderful writer and able to immerse you lightly in pretty heavy stuff.

As a disclaimer, I have read Dr. Burton’s publications several times over and have thoroughly enjoyed all of them. Hypersanity is no different as it is stylistically very similar to Heaven and Hell but in terms of content, it lies somewhere between that and my personal favorite, The Art of Failure. Hypersanity begins by laying the groundwork by defining what logic, knowledge, reason, science, and truth are. After establishing those definitions with examples and limitations, Hypersanity moves from what modern society points to as intelligence to less measurable and testable forms of intelligence such as intuition and imagination.After personally collecting a few degrees in the physical sciences and working in various analytics positions myself, Hypersanity is a refreshing reminder of the power of creativity and imagination, or in other words, the colorful world and life beyond math and science. Beyond a reminder, the book is simultaneously damning to the ambitious entrepreneurs pulling all-nighters in Silicon Valley to the chemical engineers at Exxon and every scientist, engineer, and dean of admissions in between who refuse to give mind that true intelligence and strength is more than Fourier transformations, eigenvectors, and artificial intelligence engineering. The prescription? Perhaps the answer lies in asking ourselves what exactly are we so busy trying to protect ourselves from to begin with.
