Dacher Keltner with Rebecca Solnit – Awe

In Awe: The New Science of Everyday Wonder and How It Can Transform Your Life, Dacher Keltner presents a radical investigation and deeply personal inquiry into this elusive emotion. Revealing new research into how awe transforms our brains and bodies, alongside an examination of awe across history, culture, and within his own life during a period of grief, Keltner shows us how cultivating awe in our everyday life leads us to appreciate what is most humane in our human nature.
In conversation with Rebecca Solnit — writer, historian, and activist — the author of more than twenty books on feminism, western and urban history, popular power, social change and insurrection, wandering and walking, hope and catastrophe.
