Metzl's new book delves into the history of schizophrenia as a disease.

The Unforseen Cost of Civilization

In this edition of Radio Curious we visit again with Spencer Wells and discuss his latest book, “Pandora’s Seed: The Unforeseen Cost of Civilization,” published in 2010. “Pandora’s Seed” tells the story of what we humans, with our hunter-gatherer biological construct have created in the past 10,000 years. These multiple live style changes have produced what we call “civilization,” with systems and mechanisms that will not allow us to continue the life-styles that are emulated by many people world-wide, and exploited by those who have access to them. In other words we can’t last much longer doing what we are doing without radically reducing the way we all live, if not outright killing our species .
