The Power of Logic

Is Sherlock Holmes actually good at logic?

Senior Lecturer Dr Patrick Girard is here to talk about logic. We use logic in everyday decision making and it helps to slow down our thoughts. Patrick discusses his own experience of using logic for a healthy pursuit of common goals, suggests how it might improve our interactions on social media, and whether Einstein's logical decision to write a letter to President Roosevelt was the "right" course of action.
