Lecture Special Sale Mario Livio: Understanding the Mysteries of Our Physical World
Lecture, with book signing
For centuries, mathematicians have been uncannily accurate at describing and predicting the physical world that physicists have later discovered. Why is this so? This evening, Mario Livio (senior astrophysicist, Hubble Space Telescope Science Institute) explores this question by taking a fresh look at cosmology, religion, and cognitive science, beginning with ancient Greeks to the scientists of today. Book signing follows.
