From
the bestselling author of Waking Up and The
End of Faith, a collection of the best conversations
from his wildly popular, often controversial podcast, Making Sense.
“Civilization rests on a series of successful conversations.” —Sam
Harris
Sam
Harris—neuroscientist, philosopher, and bestselling author—has been exploring
some of the most important questions about the human mind, society, and current
events on his podcast, Making
Sense. With over one million downloads per episode, these discussions
have clearly hit a nerve, frequently walking a tightrope where either host or
guest—and sometimes both—lose their footing, but always in search of a greater
understanding of the world in which we live. For Harris, honest conversation,
no matter how difficult or controversial, represents the only path to moral and
intellectual progress.
The Making
Sense audiobook
includes talks with Daniel Kahneman, Timothy Snyder, Nick Bostrom, and Glen Loury, on topics that range from the nature of
consciousness and free will, to politics and extremism, to living ethically.
Together they shine a light on what it means to “make sense” in the modern
world.
