Books

I’ve spent much of my life asking questions. Why do intelligent people repeatedly behave in ways they know don’t serve them? How much of personality is really personality? Why does adversity transform some people and overwhelm others? What makes human intuition occasionally brilliant and spectacularly wrong? Can artificial intelligence help us understand human behavior without reducing human beings to algorithms? What roles do love, meaning, spirituality and connection play in health and human flourishing? And perhaps the question underneath all the others: How much freedom do we actually have to become different from the person our past taught us to be?

Books give me room to explore questions like these. But increasingly, so do essays, conversations, radio, technology and the wonderfully unpredictable exchange of ideas that happens when somebody says: “I’m not sure I agree with you.” Welcome to that part of my world.

The following books are all available here:
