An Evening Of Physics And Philosophy With Dr. Sean B. Carroll

Host Ira Flatow will be joined by award-winning physicist Dr. Carroll to discuss his book, “The Biggest Ideas in the Universe.”

Renowned physicist and author Dr. Carroll says yes—if you’re willing to embrace a little bit of math. His latest book, The Biggest Ideas in the Universe: Space, Time, and Motion, starts with the basics you might learn in an introductory physics class and builds all the way to mind-bending concepts like time and black holes.

Carroll’s big ideas live—alongside Ira Flatow, the award-winning host of public radio’s Science Friday—in an intimate, one-of-a-kind evening at WNYC’s Greene Space. Together, they’ll explore the place where physics equations leave off and philosophical questions begin, and the fascinating, nebulous world in between.

You think you understand the world. But can you really understand it?
