Welcome to this podcast series, Thinking like X. The goal of this series is twofold. The first goal is to uncover how people in various fields think about solving problems within their fields. The second goal is to figure out how thinking about problems in their fields have influenced and improved, or maybe even diminished, their thinking abilities outside of their fields. The range of values x can take doesn’t have many constraints. We are looking to talk to people working in diverse fields including engineers, linguists, carpenters and dancers.
