What Makes Us Human

The Many Facets of Humanness

Fri, 18 Apr 2008 13:37:25 -0700

Asking what makes human beings unique brings to mind a seemingly endless list of attributes and activities, both positive and negative. Self-awareness and free moral agency, speech and symbolic cognition, our nimble thumbs, conscience and the capacity to imagine: these are just a few of the traits that distinguish us from other species. Join some of today's leading thinkers from a broad spectrum of backgrounds, including human origins, religion, psychology, biochemistry, social philosophy, humor, art and music, as they present their views on the many facets of humanness at the What Makes Us Human Conference, April 28 - 29, 2008.
