This book by Michael Sandel came up once on Andrew Huberman in the episodes we index. That mention was a genuine on-air recommendation, not just a passing reference. The people who brought it up: Dr. Alex Marson. Every occurrence below links to the episode page and to the exact second it was said on YouTube.
"This book explores moral quandaries connected with the quest to perfect ourselves and our children. Michael Sandel argues that the pursuit of perfection is flawed for reasons that go beyond safety and fairness."--Jacket.
“there's a Harvard philosopher Michael Sandel who years ago wrote a short book called The Case Against Perfection. And it's a really beautiful meditation”— Dr. Alex Marson
