À PROPOS DE CE PODCAST 🔗
Imaginology is the science of how imagination meets reality. What happens in your brain when you get lost in a good book? How can an imaginary companion satisfy real social needs? Why do children seem more creative than adults, and are they really? Join host Dr. Deena Weisberg, a cognitive scientist and professor at Villanova University, as she talks with scientists, philosophers, writers, actors, therapists, and others about how imagination works and how it shapes our beliefs, our emotions, and our lives. Through conversations about pretend play, fictional stories, theater, games, and religion, Imaginology explores the surprising ways that imagination has profound effects on reality.
