The talk will take place at 5 p.m. in the Sandhu Conference Center, D and D1 (second floor), and a book signing will follow. The talk and book signing are free and open to the public.

Knocking on Heaven’s Door is an exhilarating and accessible overview of these developments and an impassioned argument for the significance of science.
