    JSTOR isn't just a repository of scholarly articles - Their Web site features good interviews, such as this one:https://daily.jstor.org/steven-pinker-living-better-enlightenment/ …

        One needs to introduce to media the notion of public utility, backed by legislation. It could be both voluntary (the most modest websites could apply) & mandatory (for the likes of Google, Facebook, which suck 73% of advertising revenue). Sincere search for truth to be labelled!

        As far as I understand #JSTOR deprives its authors of royalties and is a huge hog. Perhaps am wrong @sapinker

        Great interview! Almost all of the criticism of your new book centres around the fact that it is not exhaustive in covering the views of every prominent thinker of the enlightenment period. A curious charge considering it was never your aim to provide a history of the period.

        Is institutional access required to read the interview?
