In a special series, "Freakonomics Radio" explores the hidden side of failure. Failure is something we all experience, but we don’t like to discuss.

Failure is embarrassing; it’s painful; it can even be life-threatening. But we need to talk about it. Because there is a lot to be learned from failure. And when failures are hidden away, as they usually are, that learning can’t happen.

Join author and Freakonomics Radio host Stephen J. Dubner to explore the hidden side of failure with Harvard researcher Amy Edmondson, author of the recently published, "Right Kind of Wrong: The Science of Failing Well," Gary Klein, cognitive psychologist and chief scientist at ShadowBox and several real-life stories of failure — no happy endings allowed. You’ll be surprised how much you’ll learn about success from those who didn’t achieve it.

Following the conversation Amy Edmondson will be signing copies of "Right Kind of Wrong."
