In this episode of Changing Minds, I sit down with neuroscientist and author Dr. Nicholas Wright to explore the fascinating connections between the brain, moral decision-making, and war.
We dive into:
-
Why does every side believe they’re morally justified in war?
-
How Culture and Identity Shape Nations and Conflicts.
-
The neuroscience of metacognition, and how “thinking about thinking” can make us wiser.
-
Lessons from World War II, Ukraine, and today’s global risks.
-
How to stay informed in a world of misinformation and bias.
If you’re curious about the intersection of neuroscience, history, and leadership, this conversation is for you.
