Professor Simon Baron-Cohen will be speaking at HowTheLightGetsIn, the world’s largest philosophy and music festival, this May. Bringing together world-leading scientists, psychologists, philosophers and politicians including Roger Penrose, Natalie Bennett, Paul Krugman, Nigel Shadbolt, Polly Toynbee, Tariq Ali, Lawrence Krauss, and John Searle for debates, talks and wild parties, this year’s programme examines the elements of reality that might soon turn out to be illusions.
Simon Baron-Cohen will be joining Clare Gerada and Richard Bentall in ‘Mind, Myth and Madness’ to debate the nature of mental illness, and also debate the neuroscience of sex differences.
