Part of British Science Festival
A lecture presented by Professor Gargi Bhattacharyya part of the Centre for Social and Political Science (CRSPS)
Does knowing about the world make life harder? How can we reconcile the pain of knowing about how imperfect the social world remains with living our day-to-day lives? This session argues that engaging in social analysis and increasing our understanding of what is happening and why can help us all to cope with the ups and downs of everyday life
