How to avoid getting locked in an echo chamber
Notes de l’épisode
Some books change your mind. Others simply reinforce what you already know. The Next Chapter's columnist Nathan Maharaj joins the show to talk about two books that challenged his assumptions and altered his perspective. Nathan is a lifelong bookseller and the director of content marketing at Rakuten Kobo. He'll discuss why challenging your beliefs is important and how it can lead to a broader worldview. Plus, Toronto artist Mah Moud stops by to talk about a mysterious book from his parents bookshelf, and how the impact of a good novel can last for generations.
Books discussed on this week's show include:
Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men by Caroline Criado Perez
How Great Things Happen by George Newman
