Those decisions can make the process last well over a year.

I often think back to the first adult book I ever bought, a 400+ pager titled ‘How the Mind Works’ by Steven Pinker. I’ve always been fascinated by the complexities of the mind and its influence on our behaviors. My college journey went on to start with a major in sociology – the study of human social behavior, a natural fit for someone intrigued by the mind and social society.

This growing trust deficit is a serious problem. It erodes a high-functioning pluralistic democracy , compromises public health, and makes it impossible to solve collective problems like climate change.
