Dr Jack Kruse: "I don't really look at evolution as a good or bad process. When I make the comment about a cognitive devolution, Sara, I want to be clear about this. As a brain surgeon, I don't necessarily think that's a bad thing. Hopefully I made that point to you when I tried to get you to think about cave paintings and Michelangelo.
"Without us wearing clothes, what's the collateral damage? We don't get Michelangelo's David. We don't get the Sistine Chapel. We don't get, whether you like it or not, Rothko. We don't get some of the modern artists, Kandinsky or things like that. Some people may say, 'Well, I don't like that anyway.' Well, that's OK.
"What I'm basically saying, that's really what Rick Rubin's book is about. It's about the catalog of what's possible in the real estate of the human frontal lobes. Because that's really what separates us from chimps, and melanin is what created that."
