Welcome to another episode of conversations with Coleman. My guest today needs no introduction, so I won't give him one. Today's guest is Steven Pinker, and he has a new book called "Rationality: What It Is, Why It Seems Scarce, Why It Matters." We talk about what rationality is, we talk about rationality's PR problem, whether rationality has increased or decreased over time and how to apply reason to everyday life choices. We also discuss the behavioral economics revolution and cognitive biases, what it means to be intellectually humble, why people love conspiracy theories and when is it okay to be irrational. We go on to talk about the role "reason" has played in the enormous progress humanity has made since the dawn of civilization, and much more. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did. #ConversationswithColeman #CwC #ColemanHughes #StevenPinker #Rationality #NewBook #Trending #Reasoning #Fallacies #Irrational #Thoughts #Decsions FOLLOW COLEMAN YouTube - http://bit.ly/38kzium Twitter - http://bit.ly/2rbAJue Facebook - http://bit.ly/2LiAXH3 Instagram - http://bit.ly/2SDGo6o Podcast -https://bit.ly/3oQvNUL Website - https://colemanhughes.org/ Merch - https://bit.ly/ColemanMerch FOLLOW STEVEN Twitter - https://twitter.com/sapinker Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/sapinker/?hl=en Website - https://stevenpinker.com/ Amazon - https://amzn.to/3nYGPrf
