<p>Annie Murphy Paul is an acclaimed science writer. Her work has appeared in the <em>New York Times</em>, the <em>Boston Globe</em>, <em>Scientific American</em>, <em>Slate</em>, <em>Time</em> magazine, <em>The Best American Science Writing</em>, and other publications.</p> <p>Our conversation focuses on the subject of her latest book, <em>The Extended Mind</em>, which is about how human cognition relies on our bodies, other people, and the material world. I loved this book and was thrilled to ask Annie about how this line of thinking plays out in the context of our heavily digitized lives.</p> <h2>Show notes</h2> <ul> <li><a href="https://anniemurphypaul.com">Annie Murphy Paul</a></li> <li><a href= "https://twitter.com/anniemurphypaul">@anniemurphypaul</a> on Twitter</li> <li><a href="https://amzn.to/3CVHvUS"><em>The Extended Mind: The Power of Thinking Outside the Brain</em></a> by Annie Murphy Paul</li> <li><a href="https://amzn.to/3kbdNng"><em>The Cult of Personality Testing: How Personality Tests Are Leading Us to Miseducate Our Children, Mismanage Our Companies, and Misunderstand Ourselves</em></a> by Annie Murphy Paul</li> <li><a href="https://amzn.to/3bRZ0cs"><em>Origins: How the Nine Months Before Birth Shape the Rest of Our Lives</em></a> by Annie Murphy Paul</li> <li><a href= "https://jarango.com/2021/09/30/book-notes-extended-mind/"><em>Book Notes: “The Extended Mind”</em></a> by Jorge Arango</li> <li><a href= "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myers%E2%80%93Briggs_Type_Indicator"> Myers-Briggs Type Indicator</a></li> <li><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Clark">Andy Clark</a></li> <li><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Chalmers">David Chalmers</a></li> <li><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carol_Dweck">Carol Dweck</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.apple.com/watch/">Apple Watch</a></li> <li><a href= "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interoception">Interoception</a></li> <li><a href= "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search/Robert_Caro">Robert Caro</a></li> <li><a href="https://
