Quarks, the Cosmos, Carmina Burana, and the Big Bang | Dan Levitt
Dan Levitt is a director, documentarian, and an author.
His latest book, What’s Gotten Into You: The Story Of Your Body’s Atoms, From The Big Bang Through Last Night’s Dinner, is now available for purchase!
For the promulgation of good science to the general public–in a format and a language that is accessible to all–we look, now more than ever, to trusted figures like Dan.
As you can see, his passion for science is infectious. I learned a TON from (first) reading his fine book and then hosting him for this amazing conversation.
In this episode, Dan and I discuss:
Materialism v. Spiritualism; Science v. Religion; The Big Bang, and what preceded it; Genesis v. Aristotle; The Steady State theory; The validity of Stephen Jay Gould’s concept of “Non-Overlapping Magisteria” (NOMA); Atomic and subatomic theory; quarks; the cosmos; Albert Einstein; Georges Lemaitre; Rosalind Franklin; Benjamin Franklin; Watson and Crick; Jan Ingenhousz; Photosynthesis; The beauty of nature; Having an artistic and a scientific mind; The current state of “Science”...
And MUCH more!
