Hero And Heroes Worship - What Kobe Bryant’s Death Tells Us About Heroes - Andrew Bernstein PhD - Interview

https://www.andrewbernstein.net/books/heroism-matters/

https://www.intrinsicmotivation.life/

Why has the death of a retired basketball player caused

so much anguish to so many persons? Because human

beings need heroes–and very often great athletes are

champions most immediately recognizable to us. If we

are to understand the impact of Kobe Bryant’s life and

premature death, we must answer these questions: What

makes someone a hero? Why do human beings need them?

Why are great athletes so often looked up to as heroes?

Andrew Bernstein can help audiences discover the

answers. He holds a Ph.D. in philosophy from the City

University of New York. His just-published book is

“Heroes, Legends, Champions: Why Heroism Matters.” The

book demonstrates what heroes are, how they are

distinguished from non-heroes, and why mankind needs

them.
