Understanding Evil & How the Bicycle Transformed the World
I’ve always thought it was odd that it is called “plastic” surgery. What’s even stranger is that the term goes back over 200 years – long before what we know as plastic was really a thing. This episode begins with an explanation that all makes sense once you hear it. Source: Lindsey Fitzharris author of The Face Maker (https://amzn.to/3x3IP69).When you hear the word evil, you know what it means – but what is evil really? Is it a sinister force? Is it an unexplainable phenomenon? What makes a person do evil things? Maybe evil isn’t something but the result of something else. Listen to this fascinating conversation with Simon Baron Cohen, a professor of developmental psychopathology at the University of Cambridge and author of four books including The Science of Evil: On Empathy and the Origins of Cruelty (https://amzn.to/3tf4ffC)It’s hard to find someone who doesn’t know how to ride a bicycle. It is the most popular means of transportation on planet earth. So how did that happen? After all, the modern bike hasn’t been around all that long yet there are twice as many bicycles as cars. The history of the bicycle and its impact on the world is more interesting than you might imagine. Listen as I discuss this with Jody Rosen, a writer for The New York Times magazine and author of the book Two Wheels Good: The History and Mystery of the Bicycle (https://amzn.to/3NuAoaU).
