Annie Murphy Paul is an acclaimed science writer. Her work has appeared in the New York Times, the Boston Globe, Scientific American, Slate, Time magazine, The Best American Science Writing, and other publications.Our conversation focuses on the subject of her latest book, The Extended Mind, which is about how human cognition relies on our bodies, other people, and the material world. I loved this book and was thrilled to ask Annie about how this line of thinking plays out in the context of our heavily digitized lives.Show notesAnnie Murphy Paul@anniemurphypaul on TwitterThe Extended Mind: The Power of Thinking Outside the Brain by Annie Murphy PaulThe Cult of Personality Testing: How Personality Tests Are Leading Us to Miseducate Our Children, Mismanage Our Companies, and Misunderstand Ourselves by Annie Murphy PaulOrigins: How the Nine Months Before Birth Shape the Rest of Our Lives by Annie Murphy PaulBook Notes: “The Extended Mind” by Jorge Arango Myers-Briggs Type IndicatorAndy ClarkDavid ChalmersCarol DweckApple WatchInteroceptionRobert CaroThe Power Broker: Robert Moses and the Fall of New York by Robert CaroMiroMuralSome show notes may include Amazon affiliate links.
