How Seemingly Senseless Acts Make Life Worth Living
Dimitris Xygalatas
From adopting lucky charms to following elaborate religious ceremonies, every human culture features rites that in many cases have remained unchanged for centuries. Anthropologist and cognitive scientist Dimitris Xygalatas explores the ‘transformative power’ of such behaviour, demonstrating how addressing our primordial need for ritual helps strengthen our connections to one another and give meaning to our lives.
