On Shame: Jennifer Jacquet, Author and Scientist

Elizabeth Floyd Mair interview's Jennifer Jacquet, who visits tomorrow, in the Times Union:

"In her new book, "Is Shame Necessary?" (Pantheon, February 2015), environmental social scientist Jennifer Jacquet focuses on the role of shame in placing limits on the more egregious behavior of large corporations and powerful groups. She argues that shame can be a powerful force for social change and political change."
