Books Mentioned On DOAC By Dr. Andrew Huberman:

Oliver Sacks

I realized—you know, that's the line—I... you know, the great Oliver Sacks, another hero of mine, British-trained neurologist and author, he wrote what basically became the script for 'Awakenings' and things like that.

Peter Thiel

You know, like Peter Thiel's book 'Zero to One,' as I recall, defines competition as anti-creativity in many ways, because through competition you are, by definition, changing what you're doing in order to kind of overcome something.

David Goggins

I think about David Goggins, who I know well... when I think of David, I think about overcoming the voice in the mind that's trying to pull you down and defeating that, in fact, having multiple representations of self in the brain.

Matthew Walker

I'd like to dispel the myth—even though my friend Matt Walker will probably get upset at me for saying this—not everyone needs eight or nine hours of sleep. I got six last night. I actually went to bed at midnight last night... woke up at 6:45.

Anna Lembke

Am I having a dopamine crash? You are, and Anna Lembke describes this best. You can do this experiment. It's kind of a fun experiment for you chocolate lovers.

Paul Saladino

I'm sure Paul Saladino will come after me, probably with a drumstick or something. Whatever Jordan's doing seems to be working for Jordan, so I'm not going to argue. People should do as they will, but you know, I'm an omnivore and enjoy that.

Karl Deisseroth

I had a guest on my podcast by the name of Karl Deisseroth... when he came on my podcast, he said that he has a practice every night after he puts his five kids to sleep... he makes himself stay as completely still as possible and forces himself to think in complete sentences.

Paul Conti

Paul Conti said this... you know, if you were to list out the hundred most important things in romantic relationships, you would just say self-care and communication 50 times. And I think that's absolutely true because we need safety, we need acceptance...

Martha Beck

I'm a big fan of Martha Beck. She has this mystical spiritual side that really brings together a lot. I asked her recently, 'What do you do when the thinking mind is trying to analyze something and you also have all this feeling—which one do you rely on?' She says, 'Ah, the way to do this is you ima

Rick Rubin

That's one of the reasons I think people love Rick. Rick Rubin's a close friend, and I'm very blessed. It's not because he's Rick Rubin the famous musician... but one thing is that when Rick shows up, he's just like there. He's super present. He's not there to give you anything but he gives, and he'
