- Summary:
- We are all human, we are all fallible and we all make mistakes. And there's nothing we can do about that - or is there? Dr Kevin Fong investigates how the latest science is revolutionising our understanding of what it is to be human, and holding out the hope of making us all less fallible when it really matters - from cutting-edge neuroscience to new discoveries about how our brains deal with stress and pressure. To err may be human, but it needn't cost lives. This newly emerging science is coming up with new ways of making mistakes less expensive for each and everyone of us.
