New Scientist Articles


I found a couple of New Scientist articles that are I think quite interesting, though I will add the caveat that this is the scientific equivalent of the tabloids or broadsheets i.e.: newspaper journalism reporting.

The first is on bigotry called, Super-you: Use your better instincts to crush your inner bigot.

This article spoke to my core professional interests, and I recommend it as a starter to understanding human behaviour.

The second article is on superstition and is called, Super-you: You have a superstitious mind – to protect you.

Yes, but no was my reaction to reading this. Yes true for 95% of the human race, but not true for about 5% of the human race.
