“Rationality” is Steven Pinker’s latest book. It was written before the events in Ukraine, but the content is even more relevant today, as he talks about repression, censorship, conflicts and resolution, what is right or what is wrong. In his traditional clear style, Pinker reminds us of what makes humans act the way they do during a confrontation, and some of the tools of rationality that can be used to confront an opponent or a situation. Whether it is on a personal or global scale. Professor Pinker was a virtual guest at the Jaipur Festival in India. The chat took place when the world had not yet witnessed the atrocities committed in Ukraine. Here are the highlights.
