part of this engaging and deeply reported narrative, Boser visits a radio soap opera in Rwanda that aims to restore the country s broken trust, profiles the man who brought honesty to one of the most corrupt cities in Latin America, and explains how a college dropout managed to con his way into American high society. Boser even goes skydiving to see if the experience will increase his levels of oxytocin, the so-called "trust hormone.A powerful mix of hard science and compelling storytelling, "The Leap" explores how we trust, why we trust, and what we can all do to deepen social trust.
