of Conversations with Coleman. My guest today is Paul Bloom. Paul Bloom is a renowned psychologist,

professor, and author currently teaching

at Yale University and University of Toronto. He's published many books, including Descartes's

Baby, How Pleasure Works, Just Babies, Against Empathy, The Sweet Spot, and the topic of today's

conversation, Syke, the story of the human mind. In this episode, we'll be discussing a broad summary of the

field and findings of psychology, touching on its various branches and exploring the complexities

of human behavior. We talk about whether psychology is a real science. We talk about the reality
