Most of us recognize that climate change is real yet we do nothing to stop it. What is the psychological mechanism that allows us to know something is true but act as if it is not? George Marshall’s search for the answers brings him face to face with Nobel Prize-winning psychologists and Texas Tea Party activists; the world’s leading climate scientists and those who denounce them; liberal environmentalists and conservative evangelicals.

Minority Brain is for the critical thinkers who refuse to be 'discombobulated' by the chaos. Listen in as we connect the dots between political rhetoric and the reality on the ground.

For sure - this is the cancer book for rednecks! Only someone who survived boot camp would even understand. Twenty-six years of brain cancer makes me infinitely qualified to speak on survival.
