Presented as part of the SEATTLE SCIENCE LECTURES series with TOWN HALL SEATTLE.Bang: an amazing month begins. It begins at Town Hall with eminent biographer, former CNN CEO, former Time managing editor, and present Aspen Institute president Walter Isaacson. The author of such noted works as Kissinger and 2003's Benjamin Franklin, he is here tonight with his new work, Einstein: His Life and Universe (Simon & Schuster). "Walter Isaacson has captured the complete Einstein. With an effortless style that belies a sharp attention to detail and scientific accuracy, Isaacson takes us on a soaring journey through the life, mind and science of the man who changed our view of the universe." - Brian Greene. "Once again Walter Isaacson has produced a most valuable biography of a great man about whom much has already been written...He met the challenge of dealing with his subject as a human being and describing profound ideas in physics. His biography is a pleasure to read and makes the great physicist come alive." - Murray Gell-Mann. $5 tickets at the door, handled by Town Hall. Preferred seating for Town Hall members.
