"When you don't own things, you don't have to keep track of them," he says. "You just show up." Courtesy of Steven T. Johnson João  A. Silva rents a bed at the PodShare in Hollywood, FL.

He spends most of his days using things he does not own. He takes a ride-share service to get to the gym; he does not own a car. At the gym, he rents a locker. He us...

The myth of rational thinking Why our pursuit of rationality leads to explosions of irrationality. Humans are hardly rational, and in fact irrationality has defined much of human life and history. Are human beings uniquely irrational creatures? And if we are, what are the consequences of basing our society on the opposite assumption? These are questions Justin E.H. Smith, a philosopher at the University of Paris, takes up in his new book, Irrationality: A History of the Dark Side of Reason.

Smith argues that this is a flattering but false story. Humans, he says, are hardly rational, and in fact, irrationality has defined much of human life and history.
