Rock psychology

The Guardian profiles the life and work of psychologist Steven Pinker, noting both his controversial views on human nature and his “trademark rock-star chic”.

Here at Mind Hacks, we’re glad someone else has finally picked up on Professor Pinker’s rock n’ roll credentials as we’ve noted for some time that he bears an uncanny resemblance to Joey Tempest, lead singer of 80s rock band Europe.

Has anyone ever seen them in the same place? Is there something missing from Pinker’s official biography? I think we should be told.
