À propos de cet audio

In This Explains Everything, John Brockman, founder and publisher of Edge.org, asked experts in numerous fields and disciplines to come up with their favorite explanations for everyday occurrences. Why do we recognize patterns? Is there such a thing as positive stress? Are we genetically programmed to be in conflict with each other? Those are just some of the 150 questions that the world's best scientific minds answer with elegant simplicity.

With contributions from Jared Diamond, Richard Dawkins, Nassim Taleb, Brian Eno, Steven Pinker, and more, everything is explained in fun, uncomplicated terms that make the most complex concepts easy to comprehend.

I had flown all the way to chapter 19 in one sitting. I was amused that Steven Pinker had made an appearance, as I have read several of his books. But chapter 19 talking about how lefthanded people needn't exist, be drowned, existinguished, was completely uncalled for and killed the book for me. No thanks. I am not going to continue reading your book. I will not srand for those comments. The book had been thought-provoking and interesting until then so it is really too bad.
