About “The Blank Slate”
A 2002 book by Steven Pinker. Pinker explores the idea of human nature and its moral, emotional, and political colorings, arguing that the dogma that the mind has no innate traits denies common humanity and individual preferences, replaces objective analysis of social problems with feel-good slogans, and distorts understanding of politics, violence, parenting, and the arts.
