Why is every popular science / philosophy figure a neuroscientist? Are they just gobbling up the easy pickings before the physicists and mathematicians put the subject out of reach forever?

they're not
Dawkins is an evolutionary biologist
Hawking is a theoretical physicist
Tyson is a cosmologist
Prof Steve Jones is a geneticist
Al-Khalili is a theoretical physicist
Cox is a physicist

the only one who is a neuroscientist is Sam Harris. given this board's obsession with him, there's no surprise he's the only one you can think of to include in "every". but you really need to read more.

Not a neuroscientist. Not even a scientist.

You're too stupid, kill yourself.
