Robert Sapolsky in Conversation with Robert Krulwich: The Biology Behind Human Behavior

Why do we do the things we do? MacArthur “Genius Grant” recipient Robert Sapolsky — 
the neuroscientist whom Oliver Sacks called “one of the best science writers of our time,” takes us on a wild and dazzling tour through the science of human behavior — neurobiology, the sensory world, endocrinology, genetics, culture, memory, evolution and ecology — to explore the deepest and thorniest questions about why we behave the way we do, relating to tribalism and xenophobia, hierarchy and competition, morality and free will, war and peace. Join him for a dose of wisdom, humor and some truly amazing insights.

Robert Sapolsky will sign copies of his new book, Behave, following the event.
