The Social Animal by David Brooks. Presented by Alan Penczek, Professor of Philosophy
New York Times columnist David Brooks presents new psychological research which supports a thesis tracing back to Freud--that our motives for acting as we do are largely unconscious. Set in the life stories of a fictional married couple, Brooks investigates why we choose the paths we do, and finds that the reasons are not as rational as we might think.
