Episode: Karl Deisseroth: Depression, Schizophrenia, and Psychiatry | Lex Fridman Podcast #274
Here’s a list of all the books mentioned in this episode, complete with an Amazon buy link and quotes from the episode.
The Brothers Karamazov
Buy on Amazon"I'm a big fan of Prince Mishkin from 'The Idiot,' and I learned from 'The Brothers Karamazov.' Optimism can be seen as naïveté and dumbness, but I think it's a kind of deep intelligence, maybe an inability to reason about the mechanics of the world, but instead kind of feel the world."
The Secret
Buy on Amazon"I think the mind—it’s like, you know I guess that's what like books like 'The Secret' plug into. They kind of make a whole industry out of it, but there is something about the mind believing something, making it a reality."
