Description:
"Knocking on Heaven's Door"
Lisa Randall lecture
Friday, March 1
7:30 PM
Emerson Crawford Theatre
Lisa Randall gives us an exhilarating overview of the latest ideas in physics and offers a rousing defense of the role of science in our lives. Featuring fascinating insights into our scientific future born from the author¹s provocative conversations with Nate Silver,
David Chang, and Scott Derrickson, "Knocking on Heaven¹s Door" is eminently readable, one of the most important popular science books of this or any
year. It is a necessary volume for all who admire the work of Stephen Hawking, Michio Kaku, Brian Greene, Simon Singh, and Carl Sagan; for anyone
curious about the workings and aims of the Large Hadron Collider, the biggest and most expensive machine ever built by mankind; for those who
firmly believe in the importance of science and rational thought; and for anyone interested in how the Universe beganŠand how it might ultimately
end."
Lisa is the Frank B. Baird, Jr. Professor of Science at Harvard University. She was the first tenured woman at Princeton University.
