  Presented by Ken Taylor and John Perry of Stanford University

  (2) The Power of Thought

  Human thought is an amazing thing. It has given us not only science, literature, and morality, but also superstition, slavery, and war. Thought has the power to uncover the deepest mysteries of the universe. Or to create new realities - social realities. But what makes human thought so powerful? John and Ken put this question and more to renowned cognitive scientist and best-selling author Steven Pinker (Ben Manilla Productions)
