About this episode
Why then? Why there? What’s novel about that form of inquiry in the first place?
Dr. Darrin McMahon is a Professor of History at Dartmouth College and author of award-winning books on such topics as the history of equality, genius, and happiness. He teaches us the art of a simple, childlike question for getting to the heart of what’s really going on and even gives us a crash course into the history of curiosity.
