Alexander Schmid Podcast

In this episode of Consilience Conversations, Dr. Matt Roos and I discuss (a) Jonathan Haidt and Greg Lukianoff's "The Coddling of the American Mind," and their list of cognitive distortions; (b) we consider concept creep, the figure of Medusa in mythology, and how both relate to trauma as well. We conclude with (c) a discussion of how much more sophisticated our general educational, social, and political discourse can be based on current data in science as well. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/alexander-schmid9/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/alexander-schmid9/support
