Interview: Steven Pinker at the Cambridge Union Image credit: Creative Commons I had the absolute privilege of interviewing none other than Steven Pinker following his talk at the Cambridge Union yesterday (5th May), which you can watch on the Union’s YouTube channel at your leisure. From a quick Google search, it is clear that Pinker is one of those people who is (annoyingly) good at everything; he is a cognitive psychologist, linguist, and popular science author. He has written an impressive number of books, including The Better Angels of Our Nature and Enlightenment Now. And to top it all off, he is also a very friendly and approachable person who is a real pleasure to interview.
