#042 - Dr Mario Livio - What Makes Us Curious?

Dr. Mario Livio is an internationally known astrophysicist, a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, a best-selling author, and a popular speaker. In his new book “Why? What Makes Us Curious”, Dr Livio delves into the subtleties and nuances of what constitutes our human capacity for curiosity and uses examples from Leonardo Da Vinci, Richard Feynman & many more to demonstrate the manifestation of curiosity throughout history. Expect to learn the different types of curiosity and their roles in our lives, how you can cultivate a more curious mindset for yourself & those around you, and who Dr Livio considers to be the most curious individual ever to have lived.
