Steven Pinker: Harvard cognitive psychologist and bestselling author joins conversation with Matt Heath ahead of Auckland talk

It often feels like everything is going backwards. There is more outrage, more noise, and less perspective than ever before. But feelings are not facts, and the long-term data tells a very different story. Steven Pinker is a Harvard cognitive psychologist and bestselling author who has spent decades studying language, the human mind, and using evidence to challenge how we think about violence, progress, and the state of the world. This February, Pinker is coming to Auckland, and he sat down with Matt Heath to have a chat ahead of his event.  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
