How Historical Context Shapes What We Call Knowledge

In this episode of Changing Minds, I speak with Dr. Peter Lamont, professor of history and the theory of psychology at the University of Edinburgh and a former magician. We explore his brilliant book Radical Thinking, which challenges how we define truth, knowledge, and belief.

We dive into:

• Why critical thinking isn't enough

• The humility behind science

• The psychology of belief and persuasion
