In this episode, Dr. Nader sits down with Professor Donald Hoffman, to discuss the long-held belief that evolution shapes our sensory systems to keep us alive. It has been assumed that our senses were shaped to show us truths about our environment that were necessary for our survival. But the question arose, can we truly perceive the truth through our sensory systems?

He also co authored "Observer Mechanics: A Formal Theory of Perception". Dr. Hoffman's research interests and theories are in the areas of Vision, Cognitive Science, Consciousness, and Evolutionary Models of Perception.
