In the first of a three part special, epistemologist Dr. Gary David leads The Respondent on an auditory journey through birth, development, and further learning of the 'self.'
Drawing from some of obstetrician Frederick Leboyer's book, Birth without Violence (1975), Dr. David recites, in poetic form, the possible perceptions and feelings of embryos and fetuses before, during, and after birth, using vivid depictions of newborn infants to illustrate the awe, shock and misery a baby encounters at birth.
