Up a physics textbook is your next object but one that apparently some mice found quite tasty I still have this book it's a book on General Relativity by Stephen Weinberg. My way of studying to university years was very I would say unconventional in for what is university education today. Almost did not go to classes out of maybe 1820 courses that were supposed to follow at the university.
This week on the Penguin Podcast, Nihal is joined by writer, science populariser and theoretical, Carlo Rovelli.
He joins us to talk about the new English translation of his first book, Anaximander.
They all also discuss the singular genius of the philosophers of the past, the importance of questioning our reality, the significance of a typewriter in his writing career, and his admiration for the theoretical physicist John Wheeler.
