Hersch Lauterpacht Memorial Lectures 2025: Diversity and Self-Determination in International Law: Continuing Conversations with Karen KnopWe will come together to celebrate the life and scholarship of our colleague and friend, Professor Karen Knop (1960-2022). Karen, until her untimely passing, was the Cecil A Wright Chair at the University of Toronto's Faculty of Law. A long-time friend of the Lauterpacht Centre, Karen was to have delivered the Centre's 2025 Hersch Lauterpacht Memorial Lectures.Session III Private and Foreign Relations LawProfessor Anne Peters in conversation with Dr Roxana BanuChair: Professor Campbell McLachlanProfessor Peters's talk, 'Populism, Foreign Relations Law, and global order and justice', will discuss populist foreign relations law, which was Karen Knop's last project, at the university of Helsinki and as a Max Planck fellow. This talk will make the point that ongoing transformations of the concept of law itself, of legal procedures, and of legal substance cut across the ‘levels' of governance. And neither identitarian rhetoric, nor trade wars, nor border-fences will bring back an inter-state, Westphalian (or ‘Eastfalian') order. We are living in conditions of global law (and transnational) law. Populist heads of state both deploy and defy this law (concluding populist treaties or deals such as the German-Turkish refugee agreements; denouncing treaties such as ICSID or the Paris Agreement; using their war powers to escape domestic critique; raising tariffs to please their voter-base, and so on). At the same time, domestic, local and transnational actors (ranging from cities to courts to Indigenous peoples, or philanthro-capitalists) activate all kinds of law to resist populism. Such global lawfare destabilises world order but also has a transformative potential. New legal forms (especially informal agreements), new legal processes (such as public interest litigation before the ICJ) and new legal principles (such as One Health; Rectification/reparation; and the exposure of double standards) are responding to the big challenges for global order and justice: the cultural, the social, and the ecological challenge. Dr Banu's talk, 'Foreign Affairs, Self-Determination and Private International Law', begins with the point that foreign affairs questions are often thought to lie at the very edge of private international law, perhaps in the leftover corners of the historical alignment between private and public international law. Similarly, in part on the assumption that private international law settles conflicts of laws between already established states, there wouldn't appear to be any intuitive connection between nationalist or self-determination movements and the field of private international law.This talk will show that these assumptions are mistaken. By engaging with the historical development of the field from the mid-nineteenth century onwards, the talk will show that private international law has been deeply enmeshed in major geopolitical events generally, and in nationalist and self-determination movements, in particular. This enmeshment is neither accidental, nor exclusively modern. It is the inevitable result of some of private international law's main analytical and conceptual building blocks. Anne Peters is Director at the Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law Heidelberg (Germany), and Professor at the universities of Heidelberg, Freie Universität Berlin and Basel (Switzerland). Roxana Banu is Associate Professor and Tutorial Fellow at the Faculty of Law and Lady Margaret Hall, University of Oxford.

C'est dans ces termes que le célèbre physicien et Prix Nobel Werner Heisenberg à l'institut Max Planck a rejeté en 1970 le projet de Pierre Boulez de collaboration entre sciences et musique. Werner Heisenberg pensait-il que la musique est uniquement le domaine de la subjectivité et de l'intuition (alors même que la lutherie, par exemple, implique une haute technicité guidée par des critères musicaux) ? Que scientifiques et musiciens ne pouvaient pas établir un dialogue et se stimuler mutuellement ?Dans une première partie, ma communication reviendra sur les différentes tentatives – fructueuses et infructueuses – au sein de l'Ircam dans ses premières années pour organiser cette fameuse collaboration entre scientifiques et musiciens afin d'explorer les nouvelles possibilités offertes à la musique par les technologies émergentes, notamment dans le domaine de l'informatique.Dans une deuxième partie, j'évoquerai les différentes modalités de travail qui ont caractérisé ma collaboration avec Pierre Boulez entre 1980 et 2011, lors de la production de ses œuvres à l'Ircam : Répons, Dialogue de l'ombre double, …explosante-fixe… et Anthèmes 2. Notre collaboration s'est mobilisée tantôt sur la recherche d'un vocabulaire musical électronique, tantôt autour d'une idée musicale, tantôt sur une métaphore qui devrait guider la réalisation électronique. Ces derniers points seront illustrés par quelques exemples tirés des œuvres de Pierre Boulez.

Imagine being able to tear through the fabric of reality itself - to quantum leap across the multiverse of possibilities and land precisely in the version of your life where abundance flows like water, where your highest potential has been realized, where the YOU that exists there wakes up every morning in awe of the magic that surrounds them! This is not science fiction, my friends - this is the bleeding edge where ancient wisdom meets quantum physics. The mana force - that primordial energy the Polynesians harnessed for centuries - combined with the reality-bending principles of quantum mechanics that scientists like Max Planck and Niels Bohr unveiled to our astonished minds. What if I told you that the version of you that has already achieved everything you desire is simply vibrating at a different frequency? That your dream life exists RIGHT NOW in a parallel timeline, and all you need is the right technology of consciousness to SHIFT yourself there? The meditation you're about to experience is that technology - a precise protocol combining the energy-generating mana force breath work with visualization that programs your neural pathways, connects to your higher self, activates the reality-selecting plait from Transurfing, and executes the quantum jump that catapults your consciousness into your optimal timeline.

Wir brechen einmal die traditionellen Gottesbilder auf und werfen einen neuen, wissenschaftlich und spirituell fundierten Blick auf das, was hinter allem wirkt: Intelligenz, Bewusstsein, kreative Energie. Gott ist keine externe Instanz, kein Wesen außerhalb von uns. Sondern hinter allem, was existiert, jeder Blume, jedem Stern, jedem Herzschlag, wirkt eine kreative, formgebende Kraft: das Bewusstsein selbst. Physiker wie David Bohm, James Jeans und Max Planck zeigen, warum Bewusstsein nicht Folge von Materie ist, sondern ihr Ursprung. Dieses Bewusstsein, das oft als Gott bezeichnet wird, ist keine abstrakte Idee, sondern ein lebendiges Feld, in dem wir alle untrennbar verbunden sind. Wir müssen Gott ist nicht außen suchen. Gott ist spürbar, in jedem Atemzug, in jeder Intuition, in der stillen Schönheit der Natur.

Jonathan Haidt wrote the Anxious Generation to describe the reality of anxiety in our world. What frightens us most these days? How do we overcome our fears? After Jesus rose from death, his words empowered his disciples to live fearlessly. What if we lived by the red letters? Message based on Matthew 28:1-10 and Revelation 1:17-18.Quotes:John Updike: Seven Stanzas at EasterMake no mistake: if he rose at all It was as His body; If the cell's dissolution did not reverse, the molecule reknit, The amino acids rekindle, The Church will fall.It was not as the flowers, Each soft spring recurrent; It was not as His Spirit in the mouths and fuddled eyes of the Eleven apostles; It was as His flesh; ours.The same hinged thumbs and toes The same valved heart That—pierced—died, withered, paused, and then regathered Out of enduring Might New strength to enclose.Let us not mock God with metaphor, Analogy, sidestepping, transcendence, Making of the event a parable, a sign painted in the faded Credulity of earlier ages: Let us walk through the door.The stone is rolled back, not papier-mache, Not a stone in a story, But the vast rock of materiality that in the slow grinding of Time will eclipse for each of us The wide light of day.And if we have an angel at the tomb, Make it a real angel, Weighty with Max Planck's quanta, vivid with hair, opaque in The dawn light, robed in real linen Spun on a definite loom.Duane Brooks: This is what's happening in heaven, and it happens every time the people of God come together and worship him, heaven is coming to earth. And the hope is that maybe in our midst is somebody who doesn't yet know Jesus, but by the way we worship says that must be real. That must be true because we give God his worth.Japanese proverb: There are four things to be afraid of—fire, storm, earthquake, and one's father.Robert Murray McCheyne: If I knew Jesus was in the next room praying for me, I would not fear anything in the world. The distance makes no difference.  He is praying for me . Eugene Peterson: The most important question we may ask of the Bible is not:  what does this mean, but what can I obey.Thomas a Kempis: Instant obedience is the only kind of obedience there is; delayed obedience is disobedience.Duane Brooks: There are three words that could change the lives of every person we meet, every person we encounter. The words, he is risen. That changes everything. How do I know? Because it changed my life. Duane Brooks: "He is risen" changed your lives and it will change the life of every person who comes to believe it. We worship fearlessly. And the good news is because Christ is risen, we don't have to be afraid of dying, nor do we have to be afraid of speaking publicly about what Jesus has done in our lives. And this is the way the church has transformed culture for two thousand years.#worship #witness #faith #hope #courage To discover more messages of hope go to tallowood.org/sermons/.Follow us on Instagram, X, and YouTube @tallowoodbc.Follow us on FaceBook @tallowoodbaptist

Between the time the first Nobel Prize was awarded in 1901 and 1933, a total of 31 were awarded to German scientists and politicians. To name just a few, Wilhelm Röntgen (1901), Max Planck (1918), Albert Einstein (1921) and Werner Heisenberg (1932) for Physics, Emil Fischer (1902), Fritz Haber (1918), Walther Nernst (1920) and Hans Fischer (1930) for chemistry, Emil von Behring (1901), Robert Koch (1905) and Otto Warburg (1931) for medicine, Theodor Mommsen (1902), Gerhart Hauptmann (1912) and Thomas Mann (1929) for literature and Gustav Stresemann for peace. The UK and France received 17 and 15 respectively, whilst the US picked up just 6 during that same period. How could German universities rise to such dominance during the 19th and early 20th century from very humble beginnings? That is what we will look at in this episode.The music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.As always:Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.comIf you wish to support the show go to: Support • History of the Germans PodcastFacebook: @HOTGPod Threads: @history_of_the_germans_podcastBluesky: @hotgpod.bsky.socialInstagram: history_of_the_germansTwitter: @germanshistoryTo make it easier for you to share the podcast, I have created separate playlists for some of the seasons that are set up as individual podcasts. they have the exact same episodes as in the History of the Germans, but they may be a helpful device for those who want to concentrate on only one season.

Nu har spår av denisovamänniskan hittats på ytterligare en plats i världen, Taiwan. Svenske nobelpristagaren Svante Pääbo var först att beskriva den. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Programmet är en repris från 21 juni 2022."Den grottan är fantastisk. Det är den enda plats i världen där vi vet att denisovaner, neandertalare och sedan moderna människor har levt. Och vi vet att de två första har träffats, för vi har hittat ben från en en individ där mamman är neandertalare och pappan denisovan."Så berättar evolutionsgenetikern Svante Pääbo om Denisova-grottan i Ryssland, som också gett namn åt den nya människotypen som han varit med och upptäckt. Men vad är då en denisovan? Ja det återstår till stor del att förstå. Det är något så fantastiskt som en typ av människa vars existens blev känd först 2010, och som alltså under en lång tid levde sida vid sida med neandertalarna och med oss moderna människor.Denisovanerna var nog ungefär lika utbredda i Asien då som neandertalarna var i Europa, menar Svante Pääbo, trots att deras benrester bara har hittats i Denisovagrottan och på ett eller ett par ställen till. Istället är det dna hos nu levande människor som är det viktigaste spåret.Det här hör vi Svante Pääbo berätta om i Vetenskapsradion På djupet, där vi också får höra om vårt genetiska arv från neandertalarna, och om vilka egenskaper som kan ha lett till att vi blev kvar på jorden och inte de.Medverkande: Svante Pääbo, direktör för avdelningen för evolutionär genetik vid Max Planck-institutet för evolutionär antropologi i Leipzig.Reporter: Björn Gunérbjorn.guner@sr.seProducent: Peter Normarkpeter.normark@sr.se

Federico Faggin sfida l'IALa coscienza è una proprietà fondamentale dell'universo, come l'elettricità? In questo episodio de "La mia vita spaziale" esploriamo l'affascinante tesi di Federico Faggin, inventore del microprocessore, nel suo libro "Irriducibile".Federico Faggin non è solo un pioniere dell'informatica che ha rivoluzionato il mondo tecnologico. È uno scienziato che, dopo anni di ricerca, ha concluso che la coscienza umana non può emergere da semplici impulsi elettrici - proprio come l'elettricità non emerge da particelle prive di carica elettrica. La coscienza, sostiene Faggin, è una proprietà irriducibile della materia, fondamentale quanto l'elettricità stessa.In questo viaggio intellettuale scoprirai: • Come sensazioni, emozioni, pensieri e sentimenti spirituali non possano essere spiegati dalla scienza moderna come meri epifenomeni • Perché anche Max Planck considerava "la coscienza come fondamentale e la materia un derivato della coscienza" • L'idea sorprendente che l'universo si espanda con l'espandersi delle coscienze che lo abitano • La differenza fondamentale tra un computer che rimane "incosciente" e un organismo vivente capace di auto-riparazione"L'essere umano è in realtà ancora tutto da scoprire" riflette Andrea Brugnoli in questo episodio che ti farà ripensare il rapporto tra tecnologia e natura umana.

At the dawn of the 1930s, Germany is a physics powerhouse, where great minds like Albert Einstein and Max Planck have revolutionized the scientific landscape. But a talented young physicist named Trude Goldhaber struggles to make her voice heard in a male-dominated field. Trude perseveres, despite the pressures of antisemitism and misogyny all around her. Forced to work in the shadow of her scientist husband, she contributes to research and discoveries that help create the most dangerous weapon known to mankind. Later, when Trude finally makes a name for herself, she does everything in her power to lift up the young women following in her footsteps.  Thanks to a grant from the American Institute of Physics and funds from the German Foreign Office, LBI processed and digitized the approximately 19 linear feet of Trude's papers, which consist of notes, graphs and diagrams, original data, and correspondence related to her research between 1930 and 2000. Maurice Goldhaber's papers are awaiting processing. Learn more at lbi.org/goldhaber. Exile is a production of the Leo Baeck Institute, New York and Antica Productions.

Une équipe de linguistes de l'institut Max-Planck de psycholinguistique aux Pays-Bas a fait une découverte remarquable en 2013 : l'existence d'un mot véritablement universel, "hein?" (ou ses équivalents), présent dans 31 langues différentes à travers le monde. Ce qui rend cette découverte particulièrement intéressante est que ce mot ne semble pas avoir été emprunté d'une langue à une autre, mais s'être développé de manière indépendante dans diverses cultures. Pour parvenir à cette conclusion, les chercheurs ont mené une étude approfondie, analysant des conversations informelles dans des contextes très variés, allant des grandes métropoles aux villages les plus reculés. Dans certains cas, ils se sont même immergés pendant plusieurs semaines dans des communautés isolées pour observer et enregistrer des échanges spontanés. Ce mot universel partage des caractéristiques phonétiques remarquablement similaires dans toutes les langues étudiées. Il est systématiquement monosyllabique, prononcé avec une intonation interrogative, et souvent accompagné d'un léger coup de glotte. Sa fonction est également identique partout : il sert à signaler une incompréhension et à demander une clarification dans la conversation. Les chercheurs expliquent ce phénomène par ce qu'ils appellent une "convergence évolutive", concept emprunté à la biologie. Tout comme différentes espèces peuvent développer des caractéristiques similaires face à des défis environnementaux communs, les langues auraient évolué vers une solution commune pour répondre au besoin universel de gérer les incompréhensions dans les conversations. Cette découverte est d'autant plus significative qu'elle remet en question l'un des principes fondamentaux de la linguistique : l'arbitraire du signe, selon lequel il n'existe normalement pas de lien direct entre le son d'un mot et sa signification. "Hein?" semble constituer une rare exception à cette règle. Contrairement à des sons instinctifs comme les pleurs ou les gémissements, "hein?" est un mot qui s'apprend au cours du développement linguistique. Les enfants l'acquièrent en observant son usage dans les interactions sociales. Sa simplicité phonétique et sa prosodie interrogative en font un outil optimal pour réagir rapidement et clarifier une situation sans interrompre le flux naturel de la conversation. Cette découverte, récompensée par un Ig Nobel en 2013, illustre comment le langage humain peut développer des solutions universelles pour répondre à des besoins de communication fondamentaux, transcendant ainsi les barrières culturelles et linguistiques.

Humanity's understanding of the universe radically altered with the advent of quantum mechanics in the early 20th century. The theory of quantum mechanics describes how nature behaves at or below the scale of atoms, and the road to that theory was littered with seemingly insurmountable obstacles. With us to discuss the development of quantum mechanics, and the major schools of thought represented by Neils Bohr and Albert Einstein, is Jim Baggott. Today we discuss many of the key players in the development of quantum mechanics, including Bohr, Einstein, Wolfgang Pauli, Werner Heisenberg, Erwin Schrödinger, Max Planck, and Max Born.

During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, there was a problem that stumped even the best minds in physics. Eventually, one man, Max Planck, solved the problem, but his solution was one that was out of left field. While the math worked, he didn't actually believe that the mathematics explained reality. It turned out his discovery was more true than he realized and it ushed in a revolution in the world of physics that completely changed our view of nature and reality.  Learn more about the ultraviolet catastrophe and the birth of quantum mechanics on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Special Guest Steve Farrell   Haider's free workbook at https://soul-awakening.com/free   In this captivating episode, Steve Farrell takes us on a profound journey from the pursuit of the American Dream to embracing conscious living and founding Humanities Team, a non-profit organization dedicated to transformational education. Throughout our conversation, Steve shares insights, anecdotes, and reflections that invite us to reconsider our values, priorities, and the essence of human existence.   Steve begins by recounting his upbringing and successful career in Silicon Valley, where he achieved material wealth and professional success. However, despite his outward achievements, he found himself increasingly disillusioned with the shallow and transactional nature of his lifestyle. This disillusionment sparked a deep internal questioning and eventually led him on a path of spiritual awakening.   As Steve delves into his personal journey, he emphasizes the importance of aligning one's life with deeper values and contributing positively to the world. He shares how his spiritual awakening prompted a shift in perspective, prompting him to reevaluate his priorities and seek a more meaningful and purposeful existence. This shift ultimately led him to co-found Humanities Team, a platform dedicated to supporting individuals on their journey towards conscious living.   The conversation explores the intersection of spirituality and money, challenging the notion that material wealth and spiritual fulfillment are mutually exclusive. Steve shares personal anecdotes and reflections on surrendering to a larger purpose and experiencing abundance through alignment with higher values. He emphasizes the importance of living authentically and aligning one's actions with one's deepest truths, regardless of societal expectations or material rewards.   Transitioning to a discussion about Humanities Team, Steve highlights the platform's offerings aimed at supporting individuals on their journey towards conscious living. He describes the platform's free programs and masterclasses, which offer valuable insights and tools for personal growth and transformation. Steve emphasizes the importance of accessibility and affordability, noting that while some users contribute less or nothing, others contribute generously, allowing the platform to sustainably support its team while remaining accessible to all.   The conversation then turns to the intersection of science and spirituality, exploring the interconnectedness of all things and the underlying unity of existence. Steve shares insights from quantum physics and quotes from prominent figures such as Albert Einstein, Erwin Schrodinger, and Max Planck to support the notion of a unified consciousness animating all life.    He emphasizes the importance of integrating scientific knowledge with spiritual wisdom, highlighting the potential for deeper understanding and transformation when these two realms are harmoniously integrated.   As the conversation unfolds, Steve delves into the importance of personal awakening and the integration of love into one's life. He suggests that by opening oneself to love and allowing it to flow freely, individuals can experience profound transformation and realize their highest potential. Steve emphasizes the importance of authenticity, vulnerability, and self-reflection in cultivating a deeper connection with oneself, others, and the universe.   Towards the end of the podcast, the conversation shifts to a discussion about the breakdown of existing human systems and the emergence of new shared human values. Steve suggests that as individuals awaken to their interconnectedness and embrace love, they contribute to the creation of a more compassionate and harmonious world. He highlights the importance of awareness, self-reflection, and intentional living in transcending transactional realities and embracing a conscious lifestyle focused on connection, compassion, and holistic well-being.   Overall, this episode offers a thought-provoking exploration of consciousness, spirituality, and the human experience. Through personal anecdotes, reflections, and insights, Steve invites listeners to reconsider their values, priorities, and the essence of human existence. Whether you're embarking on your own journey of self-discovery or seeking inspiration for personal growth and transformation, this conversation offers valuable insights and wisdom to guide you on your path.

Es esencial para mantener la vida en la Tierra, haciendo que la temperatura sea más suave y permitiendo la fotosíntesis. Pero la luz tiene algunas características difíciles de comprender.En el pasado existían dudas sobre si la luz estaba formada por ondas o por partículas. Algunos científicos, como Isaac Newton, creían que la luz estaba formada por partículas. Otros, como Thomas Young, creían que la luz estaba compuesta por ondas.En la Biblia, Jesús se presenta como la LUZ DEL MUNDO. Donde hay luz, no hay tinieblas, y en Jesús no hay ni siquiera sombra de mal. Es Jesús quien mantiene nuestra vida y nos proporciona calor ante nuestra frialdad espiritual. Y así como la luz es a la vez onda y partícula, Jesús es a la vez Dios y hombre.Gracias al trabajo de científicos como Max Planck y Albert Einstein, la mecánica cuántica llegó a la conclusión de que la luz es partícula y onda al mismo tiempo.Del mismo modo en que es difícil comprender la doble naturaleza de la luz, también es difícil comprender la naturaleza de Cristo. Pero gracias a que Jesús es 100% hombre y 100% Dios, tenemos a El Salvador perfecto. Jesús sabe lo que es sufrir en este mundo y lo que es ser tentado. Sin embargo, al mismo tiempo, él es el Dios todopoderoso que puede limpiar nuestros pecados y transformar nuestras vidas.Entrega tu vida a Jesús y deja que los rayos de luz invadan todo tú ser y aparten toda oscuridad de tu camino. VERÁS QUE LA VIDA TIENE UN BRILLO DIFERENTE CUANDO ESTÁ ILUMINADA POR LA LUZ DEL MUNDO.

Is Europe ‘nostalgic for a racist past' when it didn't have to apologise for its colonialism? In this week's episode of The Big Picture, we sit down with renowned Australian anthropologist Ghassan Hage. Hage is currently fighting against the prestigious Max Planck Society in Germany over accusations of ‘antisemitism' over his critiques of Israel.This week, Germany's government had to defend its ongoing military support for Israel's war in Gaza after a legal case was filed at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) by Nicaragua, who accused Germany of “facilitating the commission of genocide”.We go in-depth and speak about Germany, antisemitism and the end of liberal Europe.Hage was invited to a placement at a Max Planck institute last year, but soon became the target of attacks by right-wing media in Germany, who lobbied the Max Planck directors to fire him. They did.Despite being married to a Jewish refugee whose father fled Mussolini, and building a career in creating dialogue, Hage was denied a chance to defend the accusations.Now he's fighting back, and says his case is part of a wider trend in Germany and many western nations who are using ‘antisemitism' as a cover to keep immigrants under control.We'd love to hear your thoughts on this episode, and any guests you'd like us to have on our show.

Dr. David Fitzpatrick is Chief Executive Officer, Scientific Director, and Research Group Leader at the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience. The brain is important for so many aspects of our daily experiences, including what we perceive, what we think about, how we move, the decisions we make, and more. However, we still know relatively little about how the brain works and how it develops. David's goal is to dive deep into these basic science questions of how the brain works and how it develops. When David isn't hard at work at Max Planck, he spends his time hiking, biking, kayaking, and immersing himself in nature. He has also become a keen photographer, capturing captivating photos of the natural world and memorable moments in his life. David received his B.S. degree in Biology from Pennsylvania State University and his PhD in Psychology and Neuroscience from Duke University. He conducted postdoctoral research at the Medical University of South Carolina and then returned to Duke University as a member of the faculty. Before accepting his current positions at the Max Planck Florida Institute, David was the James B. Duke Professor of Neurobiology and Director of the Institute for Brain Sciences at Duke University. David has received numerous awards and honors over the course of his career for his outstanding research and teaching, including the 2011 Ellis Island Medal of Honor from the National Ethnic Coalition of Organizations, the Alfred P. Sloan Research Award, the Cajal Club Cortical Discoverer Award, the McKnight Neuroscience Investigator Award, and the Excellence in Basic Science Teaching Award from Duke University School of Medicine.

“If you believe that humans are animals, there can be no such thing as the history of humanity, only the lives of particular humans. If we speak of the history of the species at all, it is only to signify the unknowable sum of these lives. As with other animals, some lives are happy, others wretched. None has a meaning that lies beyond itself.” Welcome back to another episode of Made You Think! This week, we're diving into discussion on Straw Dogs by John Gray. From questioning moral structures to pondering the collective soul, we'll journey through the philosophical landscape of Straw Dogs, examining technology, lifespans, and the very essence of humanism. We cover a wide range of topics including: Connections between Straw Dogs and Taoism Whether becoming more moral as a society is possible Individualistic vs collectivistic ways of thinking Gray's critique on the idea that humans are special over animals Technology, striving, and human progress And much more. Please enjoy, and make sure to follow Nat, Neil, and Adil on Twitter and share your thoughts on the episode.

We kick off the episode by sharing our overall impressions of the book and connect it to one of our previous reads, Novacene. (3:23) How would we summarize this book? Nat, Neil, and Adil share their interpretation of the book in their own words, comparing and contrasting their summaries. (8:19) We discuss the disparity between our aspirations for progress and the reality of human nature, exploring how societal foundations have shifted. (12:35) Examining John Gray's argument, we delve into the book's six sections, analyzing its reflections on human nature, morality, and the essence of progress.  (14:55) Are we evolutionarily any different from other animal species? We share the example of a hive of white ants, and their contributions to the collective vs. the individual. (18:19) Measuring happiness and progress are both tricky. Plus, is it more harmful than beneficial to have faith in humanity and progress? (23:11) We pull out some of our key quotes from the book about technology, evolution, and the collective. Technology is not a human-only thing, and over time, new technologies will continue to emerge. (29:55) Differences between Robert Persig's and John Gray's ideas. We look at whether our views on life can change and how science fits into all of this. (36:12) Gray appears anti-striving, with ideals that we shouldn't try to control life or we'll end up disappointed in the end. (41:30) To strive or not to strive? We talk about the evolution of technology, it's accessibility in today's age, and the hard work that has happened in order for tech to progress.  (46:48) Black holes and string theory and dark matter. Oh my! We chat about some cool scientific theories and how they affect our understanding of the world. (50:59) Lots of sci-fi books are being made into tv shows and hitting the major streaming services. Nat, Neil, and Adil list a few that they're excited about. (59:42) Don't judge a book by the Goodreads reviews! If you're intrigued to pick up a copy of Straw Dogs, you can check that out here. We give our final thoughts on the book and discuss some other books that John Gray has written. (1:05:22) That wraps up this episode! Next up, we'll be reading Flowers for Algernon.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the man who, in 1905, produced several papers that were to change the world of physics and whose name went on to become a byword for genius. This was Albert Einstein, then still a technical expert at a Swiss patent office, and that year of 1905 became known as his annus mirabilis ('miraculous year'). While Einstein came from outside the academic world, some such as Max Planck championed his theory of special relativity, his principle of mass-energy equivalence that followed, and his explanations of Brownian Motion and the photoelectric effect. Yet it was not until 1919, when a solar eclipse proved his theory that gravity would bend light, that Einstein became an international celebrity and developed into an almost mythical figure.
