Dimitris Xygalatas is a Greek anthropologist and cognitive scientist at the University of Connecticut who studies ritual behaviour across cultures. Ritual examines why humans perform rituals, from religious ceremonies to everyday habits, and what science reveals about their power to shape our lives. Xygalatas's audiobook offers listeners a fascinating, evidence-based exploration of one of humanity's oldest and most universal behaviours.
