Martin Seligman's 1970 paper on the generality of the laws of learning was the first academic paper in psychology I ever read (just 2 years after it came out), and I've followed his ideas with interest and edification ever since. More than 50 years later, here he is in conversation with my former student @AdamOmaryPhD and @johanknorberg (author of an excellent book on progress), exploring the role of human agency in historical progress. https://open.substack.com/pub/humanprogressnewsletter/p/agency-and-the-making-of-history?r=17uk7&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email
