The Power of Attention

Speaker: Richard Gunderman

Based on the work of Simone Weil and Iris Murdoch, two of the most formidable women in philosophy in the 20th century, this talk makes the case that how we direct our attention has a bigger impact on the moral dimension of our lives than our sense of right and wrong. In our current political climate, it is a really timely topic.
