Dear members,

I’ve been closely following all of the conversations around this month’s book The Extended Mind: The Power of Thinking Outside the Brain by Annie Murphy Paul. The questions and comments so far are incredibly smart and thought-provoking.

My only wish is for more of the same.

Here’s the link to the discussion thread about The Extended Mind. On this month’s podcast I’ll be talking to author Annie Murphy Paul, so stay tuned for that episode at the end of the month.

And, if you haven’t already listened, here is the link to last month’s podcast with David Eagleman. Instructions on how to add that members-only podcast to your feed are below.

I know it has been a bit of a challenge locating the discussion thread and the podcast link on the site, but we now have a page specifically for The Dispatch Book Club which will make finding all of that much easier. We’ve added a new post to this page with links to this month’s discussion thread and last month’s podcast. Going forward, we will post all of the podcasts and discussion threads on that page so it’s as convenient as possible for all of you.

If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out at members@thedispatch.com.

Happy reading, y’all.
