Alan Jasanoff discussed his new book The Biological Mind on SftPublic's Contemporary Science Issues and Innovations program, March 27, 2018. This book is an important, and very readable, argument for how our minds are shaped by its natural and social environment. The notion of a mystical separation of mind from body is no longer acceptable.
