@ScienceCommunicator As the character in the play &#39;Pygmalion&#39; said, &quot;By Jove, I think she&#39;s got it!&quot;. Listening to this interview (with Bryony Kimmings/Bogwitch, who I hadn&#39;t heard of) crystalises my recent thoughts about how nagging and brow-beating people to &#39;share your truths&#39; is a no-go. Illuminating a healthier and saner view is the right way.

Mind you, most people couldn't care less: from BBC news site today 'Retailers such as M&S and Waitrose and cafe chains Pret and Greggs remain members of the BCC.'(Better Chicken Commitment ~ not using fast-grown chickens), but the rest of UK outlets just want giant, spindly-legged chickens to sate their slavering jaws. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cm2r6jqm042o

The author had a penetrating understanding of how our minds run. This is one of my favourite books that he wrote. I have read it on The Internet Archive, but a publishing house had them take it down. Now I am lucky enough to have found my own copy thanks to second-hand bookshops and the people who feed them 📚 #FoundInOxfam #psychology
