Summary

The cognitive story behind a simple act of aggression. How our brain is essentially stuck in the Stone Age, struggling to deal with the complexity and pressures of modern life. And how an ongoing battle between our twin cognitive systems - our fast and slow thinking brains - lies behind much that goes wrong in our lives.

The content is interesting but I couldn’t get past the irritating loop of “spooky” keyboard music in the background. Part of a general tendency towards dumbing down or maybe its because he’s a showman? I gave up after 15 minutes.

Too much background music

What a treasure he is because he has it all. The voice, the intonation, storytelling, intellect and linguistics. How lucky we are to have him teach us this helpful and life affirming/ changing research and information.

Terrific
