Are We Ready for a ‘Morality Pill’?

This is, of course, one of the questions that most interests me and that is motivating my current research on heroism. It’s also one of the questions that comes up with regularity on The Hero Report podcast. I wonder if Peter Singer, who wrote the piece that I’ve quoted in this post, would come on the podcast to discuss his thoughts. His answer, which turns to the potential of manipulating brain chemistry, is a fascinating one … but also, to be sure, one that isn’t free of ethical problems and concerns.
