Part 3 here: https://youtu.be/_h3GIQqLURg
What is the “my side bias” and why does it matter? Why do we need better stories in the fight against climate change? And which types of biases are held by doctors, juries and radar operators alike?

Join Steven Pinker and Oxford Professor Marcus du Sautoy in a conversation, live from London, as they discuss how best we can defend it - in part 2 of this exclusive How To Academy conversation.
