Sam Harris is an American author and thinker, philosopher, and neuroscientist. A non-conventional intellectual, and a trully interesting one, for many reasons.
If you feel attracted to courage and intellectual honesty, to a constant questioning about what it means to live a full and ethical life, the complementarity between different areas of knowledge, the understanding of consciousness, reality and human society, rationality or critical thinking, do not hesitate to watch this first video, as part of the series about this great thinker.
In this first chapter, I share this talk with Santi Caufapé, a tech entrepreneur, meditator and a follower of Sam Harris' work. He will help me introduce the author and we will also get fully into one of his great theses: There is no such thing as Free Will.
