Class is officially in session! Dr. Paul Bloom is hanging out with us on the show to discuss his new book Psych, The Story of the Human Mind, which is a book he built around his Yale introduction to psychology course.
In today's episode, we talk about...
- Why he wanted to turn his class into a book
- Why he calls psychology a young science
- What people get wrong in regard to memory
- What you need to know about implicit bias
- Why you can’t overcome biases on your own
- What makes us unique
- How appropriate amounts of anger can be useful
- What makes people happy
- Why we tend to go along with the crowd
- Why people tend to join “evil” groups
...and so much more!
