Dr. Samuel Wilkinson, a professor of psychiatry at Yale University, offers a fresh perspective on evolution and its implications for human existence. He discusses how an existential crisis in medical school spurred his exploration of life's purpose. Wilkinson argues that evolution can align with spiritual beliefs and emphasizes the necessity of personal relationships for mental well-being. He delves into the complexities of human nature, the debate on free will versus determinism, and the importance of reconnection with one’s purpose in medicine.
