LearnOutLoud.com Review
Psychologist, linguist and popular writer Steven Pinker speaks at length about his early life, intellectual journey and current research in this hour-long interview. Growing up a curious child in a Jewish family during the turbulent 60s, Pinker became focused on how we might unearth the nitty-gritty mechanisms that lie hidden beneath human behavior, language and more. His work is marked by an interdisciplinary instinct that has recently led him a wide range of fields that branch far from his primary role as a psychologist. His most recent books cover evidence for a general decline in violence across human history, and a book on writing that doubles as both a writer's manual and cogent study of language itself. This talk is part of UCTV's Conversations with History series and is available on streaming video and MP3 audio download.
