Is Curiosity Good for Us?
Psychoanalyst Adam Phillips has published an essay in the London Review of Books asking whether curiosity is actually good for us, questioning the common assumption that being curious is always a virtue. The piece is prompting readers to debate the psychological costs and benefits of curiosity, and whether the desire to know can be intrusive, destabilising or genuinely enriching.
Why now: A prominent new Adam Phillips essay in the London Review of Books is sparking discussion about whether curiosity is truly beneficial.
