Curious about Curiosity
Cross Word
06/10/21 • 34 min
Join me in a delightful interview about a delightful book as I talk to Professor F.H. Buckley about his new book Curiosity and Its Twelve Rules for Life. published by Encounter Books. It is a rollicking romp through the canons of Western history and culture as Professor Buckley explains the most curious thing about our common humanity is our sense of curiosity. With curiosity we live deep and meaningful lives, without curiosity we become less than human. The true tragedy of the 2020 pandemic was the muting of our curiosity.
