Forrest Maready is the author of “The Moth in the Iron Lung”, among other books. It tells a very different story of the Polio epidemic than the one you are likely familiar with, a story with radically different implications for health and medicine. Bret talks with Forest about his book and his interpretation of the evidence with an evolutionary bent to the conversation.

“Political compass” or “left/right spectrum” is a mind trap. Radical isn’t included within the trap. Why isn’t it? Not for “a reason” but for the dangers of “reason” itself.
