Colette Brooks, author of Lost In Wonder: Imagining Science and Other Mysteries (Counterpoint Press)
In conversation with Alan McGowan, professor of science at Eugene Lang College

Writer Colette Brooks (author of In the City: Random Acts of Awareness) takes a look at imagination and science in her new book Lost in Wonder. Serving as a tour guide through five centuries of scientific exploration, Brooks guides the reader through “thought experiments” to recreate the moment of invention or discovery, bringing her unique perspective to the larger cultural conversation about science and unleashing the most powerful force of all: our own wonder.

Upcoming Reading

For those in the Seattle area, I'll be reading from my new book, Lost in Wonder, at the Elliott Bay Bookstore on Thursday August 5th at 7pm. Elliott Bay is a great independent bookstore and I'm very happy to be back.
