“Eating the Whole Thing”: Philosophy, Science, and Anxiety

Over at the Brooklyn Institute for Social Research, Michael Brent, Christine Smallwood, and Ajay Chaudhary talk to David Albert:

This is a supplemental episode of our podcast series. In this episode of the Podcast for Social Research, Michael, Christine, and I (Ajay) sit down with Professor David Albert of Columbia University to discuss quantum physics, the history of 20th and 21st century physics, the philosophy of science, and a host of related issues, including his recent – and sometimes heated – exchange with Lawrence Krauss. As this episode is so different from our others, and led primarily through Albert’s discussion of quantum physics, the Notations section will be a brief bibliography without time-stamps. We hope you enjoy!*

*- Michael and I will be recording a follow-up to this discussion shortly. To be posted soon!
