ECSSV Book Club: The Mattering Instinct by Rebecca Goldstein

Join us for a discussion on The Mattering Instinct by Rebecca Newberger Goldstein!

MacArthur Fellow Rebecca Newberger Goldstein, author of Plato at the Googleplex and The Mind Body Problem, examines a uniquely human drive: the longing to matter.

Drawing on biology, psychology, and philosophy, Goldstein shows how our need for significance drives both our greatest achievements and our deepest conflicts. Through compelling stories, she explores how this instinct shapes our lives and offers a pathway to better understanding one another.
