Richard Feynman đã độc lập điều tra nguyên nhân vụ nổ và chứng minh rằng thảm họa là do vòng đệm cao su trong động cơ đông cứng lại, khiến động cơ hỏng hóc, bởi NASA đã bỏ qua cảnh báo của các kỹ sư về thời tiết lạnh lẽo để phóng tàu. Feynman trở nên nổi tiếng thế giới. Dù vậy, trong giới khoa học, từ lâu Feynman đã là một người khổng lồ. Nhà khoa học đoạt giải Nobel, người tạo ra phương pháp tính toán vô cùng hiệu quả mang tên mình, người thách thức các lối suy nghĩ truyền thống cứng nhắc, người với vô số bài giảng vật lý truyền cảm hứng, tay trống cừ khôi, nhân viên massage lão luyện… Gần cuối đời, khi phải trải qua bốn cuộc đại phẫu, ông vẫn giữ tinh thần lạc quan, vẫn cố gắng luyện tập sức khỏe cho chuyến đi mơ ước đến một vùng đất du mục xa xôi, vẫn dừng chân ngắm nhìn vẻ đẹp của cầu vồng sau cơn mưa. Và vẫn có thể động viên nâng đỡ cho một nhà khoa học trẻ đang mất phương hướng.Sau khi nhận bằng tiến sĩ, tác giả Leonard Mlodinow được mời đến làm việc và nghiên cứu tại viện công nghệ Caltech. Dù nhận được sự ưu ái rất lớn do thành tích của mình, nhưng Mlodinow lại choáng ngợp, mất phương hướng khi tự đặt mình vào sự kỳ vọng lớn đó, cũng như tự ti trước những người khổng lồ vật lý trong Caltech. Đang khi hoang mang, anh đã may mắn được quen biết nhà vật lý vĩ đại Richard Feynman, và nhận được rất nhiều lời khuyên bổ ích từ ông để định hướng công việc tương lai và lấy lại sự tự tin, để rồi về sau, dù không có nhà vật lý vĩ đại Leonard Mlodinow, nhưng lại có đồng tác giả với Stephen Hawking của cuốn sách Bản thiết kế vĩ đại, cùng vô số những cuốn sách nổi tiếng khác, chuyển tiếp cảm hứng khoa học và tình yêu cuộc sống của Feynman đến với mọi người. Tất cả bắt đầu từ những cuốn sách của Feynman mà Mlodinow đã đọc được khi còn là sinh viên, khởi đầu đưa ông vào thế giới vật lý.--Tìm hiểu thêm về Fonos: https://fonos.vn/Theo dõi Facebook Fonos: https://www.facebook.com/fonosvietnam/

Does work ever leave you feeling stuck in a rut with limited opportunities to be creative? To thrive, you might want to increase your brain's flexibility. But is this even possible, and if so, how? 工作是否让您感到墨守成规，发挥创造力的机会有限？为了茁壮成长，您可能需要提高大脑的灵活性。但这可能吗？如果可能的话，如何实现呢？Most jobs require the ability to problem-solve and cope with challenges, at least to a certain extent. Imagine a teacher who has a new and very nervous student in their class. If that teacher is a flexible thinker, they will be able to adapt their classroom management, even if they haven't seen this situation before. According to Leonard Mlodinow, author of Elastic, flexible thinkers rely on idea generation and imagination – they are willing to experiment and take risks. "Elastic thinking is what you need when the circumstances change, and you are dealing with something new. It's not about following rules." Therefore, instead of following the typical procedure for inducting a new student, the teacher might come up with a tailored response, based on prediction and previous experience. 大多数工作都需要至少在一定程度上解决问题和应对挑战的能力。想象一下，一位老师的班上有一个非常紧张的新学生。如果那位老师是一个灵活的思考者，他们将能够调整他们的课堂管理，即使他们以前没有见过这种情况。《Elastic》一书的作者伦纳德·姆洛迪诺 (Leonard Mlodinow) 认为，灵活的思考者依赖于创意的产生和想象力——他们愿意尝试并承担风险。“当情况发生变化、面对新事物时，你需要的是弹性思维。这不是遵守规则。” 因此，老师可能会根据预测和以前的经验提出量身定制的应对措施，而不是遵循引导新生的典型程序。 So, how can you become a more flexible thinker? According to Dr Lisa Feldman Barrett, it's all about exercising the brain. One way of doing this, she says, is through exposure to a variety of experiences which make it easier to adjust to new situations. A lot of companies now consider flexible thinking in the workplace, especially when it comes to design. Workspaces may have couches where workers can lie down and relax, giving them the space to come up with and process new ideas. Mlodinow says it's very important to take time to daydream, listen to ideas and concepts you disagree with and spend time doing activities outside of your comfort zone. This will help you understand multiple points of view and therefore blossom in many different aspects of your career. 那么，如何才能成为一个更灵活的思考者呢？丽莎·费尔德曼·巴雷特博士表示，这一切都与锻炼大脑有关。她说，做到这一点的一种方法是通过接触各种经历，这样可以更容易地适应新情况。现在很多公司都考虑在工作场所采用灵活的思维，尤其是在设计方面。工作空间可能有沙发，员工可以躺下放松，为他们提供想出和处理新想法的空间。姆洛迪诺说，花时间做白日梦、倾听你不同意的想法和概念、花时间在你的舒适区之外进行活动非常重要。这将帮助您理解多种观点，从而在您职业生涯的许多不同方面蓬勃发展。 So, if you want to make a change, you can become a flexible thinker too, with a little practice. 所以，如果你想做出改变，通过一点练习，你也可以成为一个灵活的思考者。词汇表stuck in a rut 一成不变flexibility 灵活性problem-solve 解决问题cope with 应对adapt 适应idea generation 创意生成imagination 想象力experiment 实践，尝试circumstance （客观）环境，状况typical 典型的come up with 想出，提出tailored 特制的，有针对性的prediction 预测exposure 接触adjust 适应daydream 白日做梦，幻想concept 观念，概念comfort zone 舒适区

Daily threats to our finances, freedom, and relationships, people are living on edge and tensions are high. Outburst at home during family time slips more often and road rage is becoming common behavior. Tensions are high and with that comes heightened emotional responses. Leonard Mlodinow is an American physicist, screenplay writer, and a five time NY Times best selling author. He and Tom discuss the context of being emotional and understanding how feelings shape our thoughts and our actions from his latest book, Emotional, How Feeling Shape Our Thinking. Leonard reveals the importance of knowing your emotional tendencies, how to regulate your emotions and make conscious decisions for a better emotional response. If you've ever thought people were either emotional thinkers or rational, this conversation is going to open your mind to a much bigger picture.Check out Leonard Mlodinow's book, Emotional, How Feeling Shape Our Thinking: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B091PJ8BSJ/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0 SHOW NOTES:0:00 | Introduction to Leonard Mlodinow1:45 | Emotions and Rational Thought11:03 | Emotional Reactions19:25 | Emotional Northstar32:11 | Mind Body Connection to Emotion42:03 | Emotional Tendencies & Malleability 46:44 | Wanting Things Vs.

If you think at any point, ‘I'm thinking purely objectively and rationally without any emotion's, you're just wrong.” [3:54]“Every thought that you have is influenced by your emotions.” [6:35]“Each emotion is a state of calculation.” [14:09]“If you don't want to feel that anger there's something you can do about it. That anger comes from an appraisal, [...] to reappraise it, you tell yourself a different story.” [17:59]“You want to look for an interpretation of what happened that is both true and optimistic.” Tom Bilyeu [32:53]“Liking is a little less direct than wanting. Liking makes you want, makes you do it. Wanting makes you do it directly.” [50:21]Follow Leonard Mlodinow:Website: https://leonardmlodinow.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/lmlodinow Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LeonardMlodinow/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lmlodinow/

Today I talked to Leonard Mdlodinow about his new book Emotional: How Feelings Shape Our Thinking (Pantheon, 2022). "On or around December 1910, human character changed,” Virginia Woolf memorably wrote, citing the rise of Modernism. Take things ahead a century, and Leonard Mdlodinow is making a similarly striking statement that advances in how neuroscientists can trace the connectivity of neurons has led to another striking advancement in intellectual life since approximately 2010. From the 1980s until that date, psychologists and neuroscientists were both appreciating and refining the concept of emotions as inherited from Charles Darwin. Since then, what emotions are and how they operate has undergone a conceptual revolution. This episode follows Mlodinow's guidance as he outlines how scientists today focus on emotions as functional agents, thoroughly emmeshed in how we selectively perceive and adapt to the circumstances we find ourselves in. One tangible example of the revolution: now we know that childhood can literally change our DNA as we react and adjust to emotionally-laden experiences that leave their emotional fingerprint on us all. Leonard Mlodinow received his PhD in theoretical physics from the University of California, Berkeley, was a fellow at the Max Planck Institute, and has been on the faculty at CalTech. His previous, award-winning books include two written with Stephen Hawking, and another written with Deepak Chopra. Dan Hill, PhD, is the author of nine books and leads Sensory Logic, Inc. (https://www.sensorylogic.com). His new book is Blah, Blah, Blah: A Snarky Guide to Office Lingo. To check out his related “Dan Hill's EQ Spotlight” blog, visit https://emotionswizard.com.

xtraordinary advances in psychology and neuroscience have proven that emotions are as critical to our well-being as thinking. In this conversation, Shermer and Mlodinow explore the new science of feelings. Journeying from the labs of pioneering scientists to real-world scenarios that have flirted with disaster, Mlodinow shows us how our emotions can help, why they sometimes hurt, and what we can learn in both instances. Shermer and Mlodinow discuss: the difference between emotions and feelings/moods/drives/passions; how the scientific understanding of emotions has changed; thought vs. feeling; system 1 vs. system 2 cognition; mind-body connection: how does our physical state influence what we think & feel?; the neuroscience of emotions: how the brain constructs emotions; Lisa Feldman Barrett challenge to Paul Ekman's theory of universal emotions; Schachter-Singer theory of emotion; the effects of social context on emotions; and more…

As the saying goes: “Think with your head, not your heart.” Emotion is widely considered as something that clouds judgment. Theoretical physicist and author Leonard Mlodinow turned that idea on its head in his new book, Emotional: How Feelings Shape Our Thinking. In this episode, Mlodinow and host Charles Mizrahi discuss how emotions can enhance our thought processes and improve decision-making. Topics Discussed: An Introduction to Leonard Mlodinow (00:00:00) The Value of Emotional Thinking (00:04:47)                       Life or Death Situations (00:12:25) Unconscious Mental Processing (00:17:49) Defining Emotion (00:19:34) Animal Versus Human Thinking (00:24:31) KAL Disaster and WWIII (00:28:52) Unconscious Decision-Making (00:37:33) Biased Decision-Making (00:45:54) Managing Emotions (00:51:00) Guest Bio: Leonard Mlodinow, Ph.D., is a theoretical physicist and New York Times best-selling author. He is recognized for making groundbreaking discoveries in his field. Mlodinow has written for TV shows, such as Star Trek: The Next Generation, designed games with Steven Spielberg and Robin Williams and taught at the California Institute of Technology and the Max Planck Institute in Munich. In addition, Mlodinow has co-authored bestselling books with Stephen Hawking and Deepak Chopra. And his books The Drunkard's Walk and Subliminal won the Robert P. Balles Prize for Critical Thinking and the PEN/E.O. Wilson Literary Science Writing Award, respectively.

Leonard Mlodinow, autor do best-seller O andar do bêbado, investiga, de forma divertida e brilhante, como o inconsciente modela nosso comportamento e determina nossas decisões e juízos sobre o mundo, as pessoas, as coisas. Um livro que vai mudar a sua vida. "Mlodinow é sempre feliz em seu esforço de tornar a ciência acessível e divertida." - Stephen Hawking "Um dos dez livros do ano." - NewScientist.com "Mlodinow mostra como a ideia de inconsciente tornou-se novamente respeitável. ...

Acclaimed writer and scientist Leonard Mlodinow discusses his book, "The Drunkard's Walk: How Randomness Rules Our Lives". Mlodinow received his doctorate in physics from the University of California, Berkeley, was an Alexander von Humboldt fellow at the Max Planck Institute, and now teaches about randomness to future scientists at Caltech. Along the way, he also wrote for the television series MacGyver and Star Trek: The Next Generation. In "The Drunkard's Walk," Leonard Mlodinow shows us how randomness, chance, and probability reveal a tremendous amount about our daily lives, and how we misunderstand the significance of everything from a casual conversation to a major financial setback. As a result, successes and failures in life are often attributed to clear and obvious cases, when in actuality they are more profoundly influenced by chance.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for February 1, 2021 is: gadabout • GAD-uh-bout • noun : a person who goes from place to place in social activity Examples: "He always thought death was just around the corner. He had no time to waste. As a young man he had been a gadabout, without focus. 'Where some in his situation would have found God, Stephen [Hawking] found physics,' says Mlodinow." — Marcus Berkmann, The Daily Mail (UK), 24 Sept. 2020 "Here's where [Bill] Murray enters the picture as Laura's father, Felix, a semi-retired art dealer and jet-setting gadabout who returns to town just in time to be the devil on his daughter's shoulder." — Ty Burr, The Boston Globe, 30 Sept. 2020 Did you know? If you had to pick the insect most closely related to a gadabout, you might wryly guess the "social butterfly." But there's another bug that's commonly heard buzzing around discussions of the gadabout: the gadfly. Gadfly is a term used for any of a number of winged pests (such as horseflies) that bite or annoy livestock. Since gadflies are known for their nasty bite, it's not surprising that they are named after a sharp chisel or pointed bar used by miners to loosen rock and ore called a "gad." But, although a gadabout's gossip can bite, gadfly doesn't have any clear etymological relation to gadabout, which traces back to the Middle English verb gadden, whose etymology etymologists are still trying to catch.

Stephen Hawking: A Memoir of Friendship and Physics Leonard Mlodinow was Stephen’s closest colleague in his final years. Who better to put us in the room as Hawking indulges his passion for wine and curry; shares his feelings on love, death, and disability; and grapples with deep questions of philosophy and physics. Whether depicting Hawking’s devotion to his work or demonstrating how he would make spur of the moment choices, such as punting on the River Cam (despite the risk the jaunt posed), or spinning tales of Hawking defiantly urinating in the hedges outside a restaurant that doesn’t have a wheelchair-accessible toilet, Mlodinow captures his indomitable spirit. This deeply affecting account of a friendship teaches us not just about the nature and practice of physics but also about life and the human capacity to overcome daunting obstacles. my previous conversation with Len, Deepak Chopra and Frank Wilczek https://youtu.be/E-8mF4HWDnE?sub_confirmation=1 Get the book here https://amzn.to/3gWgS7U Len received his Ph.D. in theoretical physics from the University of California, Berkeley, was an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow at the Max Planck Institute and was on the faculty of the California Institute of Technology.

An icon of the last fifty years, Stephen Hawking seems to encapsulate genius. In this episode of the How To Academy Podcast, his colleague and collaborator Leonard Mlodinow offers an intimate account of this giant of science in conversation with comic and broadcaster Robin Ince. The two met in 2003, after Stephen asked Leonard if he would consider writing a book with him. As they spent years working on A Briefer History of Time followed by The Grand Design, they forged a deep connection and Leonard gained a greater understanding of Stephen's daily life and struggles -- as well as his compassion and humour. Together they obsessed over the perfect sentence, debated the physics, and occasionally punted on Cambridge's waterways with champagne and strawberries. In time, Leonard was able to finish Stephen's jokes, chide his sporadic mischief, and learn how the hardships of his illness helped forge that unique perspective on the universe. Weaving together their shared story with a clear-sighted portrayal of Hawking's scientific achievements, Mlodinow creates a beautiful portrait of Stephen Hawking as a brilliant, impish and generous man whose life was not only exceptional but also genuinely inspiring.

One of the most influential physicists of our time, Stephen Hawking touched the lives of millions. Recalling his nearly two decades as Hawking’s collaborator and friend, Leonard Mlodinow brings this complex man into focus in a unique and deeply personal portrayal. We meet Hawking the genius, who employed his mind to uncover the mysteries of the universe — ultimately formulating a pathbreaking theory of black holes that reignited the discipline of cosmology and paved the way for physicists to investigate the origins of the universe in completely new ways. We meet Hawking the colleague, a man whose illness leaves him able to communicate at only six words per minute but who expends the effort to punctuate his conversations with humor. And we meet Hawking the friend, who could convey volumes with a frown, a smile, or simply a raised eyebrow. Modinow puts us in the room as Hawking indulges his passion for wine and curry; shares his feelings on love, death, and disability; and grapples with deep questions of philosophy and physics. This deeply affecting account of a friendship teaches us not just about the nature and practice of physics but also about life and the human capacity to overcome daunting obstacles. Shermer and Mlodinow discuss: what it was like working with Stephen Hawking, what Stephen Hawking was like as a person and personality, Hawking’s place in the pantheon of great physicists in the history of science, Hawking’s major contributions to physics, What is grand about the grand design of the universe? model dependent realism and the philosophy of science, Can we ever know reality? Why is there something rather than nothing? What caused the Big Bang to bang? What there was before time began? Why does the universe look fine-tuned and designed? Is the universe itself a giant black hole? Did the universe begin in a singularity? Hawking’s beliefs about God and why the concept isn’t necessary to explain the universe. Leonard Mlodinow received his PhD in theoretical physics from the University of California, Berkeley, was an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow at the Max Planck Institute, and was on the faculty of the California Institute of Technology. His previous books include the best sellers The Grand Design and A Briefer History of Time (coauthored with Stephen Hawking), Subliminal (winner of the PEN/E. O. Wilson Literary Science Writing Award), and War of the Worldviews (with Deepak Chopra), as well as Elastic, Euclid’s Window, Feynman’s Rainbow, and The Upright Thinkers.

Is there more evidence for God or for aliens?  Can true reality be described by science or will it always remain a mystery?  Are there limits to our imagination?  These are some of the questions I debate with Leonard Mlodinow .  Not only has he co-authored books with Stephen Hawking, he's also written for Star Trek, which make his perspectives among the most unique I've encountered.  But we don't always agree.  And over the years that has turned us into close friends, as well as collaborators.  As a man with many layers, our journey today is sure to expand your mind, as it has mine. 

Change is inevitable. Acceptance is not. Leonard Mlodinow, author of "Elastic", teaches us how to be more flexible in our ever changing world.

Elastic thinking, says theoretical physicist Leonard Mlodinow, isn’t about following but inventing rules, trading analytic for elastic thought, in order to adapt in an endlessly dynamic world, with non-linear approaches to life and work together. On this episode of Open Stacks, we pave new roads not taken, trajectories informed by social practice, social pressure, and the self at one remove, in conversations with Mlodinow on Elastic; art critic and historian Martin Patrick on books that stretched his notion of performance and identity in Across the Art/Life Divide; and booksellers on Canadian writer Sheila Heti's life-changing novel, Motherhood.

That's "Mlodinow" with a "v". It's also Mlodinow a book about elastic thinking, called Elastic. Tom fancies himself a physicist, but he's never written a book. Or an episode of Star Trek TNG. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Out of the exploratory instincts that allowed our ancestors to prosper hundreds of thousands of years ago, humans developed a cognitive style that Mlodinow terms elastic thinking, a collection of traits and abilities that include neophilia (an affinity for novelty), schizotypy (a tendency toward unusual perception), imagination and idea generation, pattern recognition, mental fluency, divergent thinking, and integrative thinking. In this remote Science Salon (recorded on March 22, 2018), Dr. Shermer begins by asking Dr. Mlodinow what it was like to work with and get to know Stephen Hawking, on which the two worked together on two books. Hawking had to be elastic in his thinking given that his disease prevented him from doing science in the traditional manner. Leonard Mlodinow received his Ph.D. in theoretical physics from the University of California, Berkeley, was an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow at the Max Planck Institute, and was on the faculty of the California Institute of Technology. His previous books include the best sellers Subliminal, War of the Worldviews (with Deepak Chopra), The Grand Design (with Stephen Hawking), and The Drunkard’s Walk, as well as The Upright Thinkers, Feynman’s Rainbow, and Euclid’s Window. He also wrote for the television series MacGyver and Star Trek: The Next Generation.  

With rapid technological innovation leading the charge, today’s world is transforming itself at an extraordinary and unprecedented pace. We are confronted every day with new challenges as jobs become more multifaceted, information streams multiply, and myriad devices place increasing demands on our attention. Theoretical physicist Leonard Mlodinow joined us with insight from his book Elastic: Flexible Thinking in a Time of Change, drawing on cutting-edge research in neuroscience and psychology to illuminate ways in which the human brain is uniquely engineered to adapt. Mlodinow took the stage for a look at the mechanics of our own minds as we navigate the rapidly shifting landscapes around us. Out of the exploratory instincts that allowed our ancestors to prosper hundreds of thousands of years ago, humans developed a cognitive style that Mlodinow terms elastic thinking, a collection of traits and abilities that include neophilia (an affinity for novelty), schizotypy (a tendency toward unusual perception), imagination and idea generation, pattern recognition, mental fluency, divergent thinking, and integrative thinking. Mlodinow asserted that these are the qualities that will enable each of us to succeed, personally and professionally, in the radically changing environments of today. With his keen acumen and rapid-fire wit, Mlodinow gives us the essential tools to harness the power of elastic thinking in an endlessly dynamic world.

Point of Inquiry, the flagship podcast of the Center for Inquiry, relaunches with a special episode recorded before a live audience at the 2013 CFI Summit in Tacoma, Washington, with new co-host Josh Zepps of HuffPost Live.Our unconscious minds offer us something of a paradox. On the one hand, we'd be lost without it, as it processes information without us ever being aware of it — it's how we deal with the real world in real time. But on the other hand, we don't always have a complete picture, so the unconscious mind can often draw mistaken conclusions, even though they may feel right at a "gut level."This is the subject of the work of Leonard Mlodinow in his most recent book Subliminal: How Your Unconscious Mind Rules Your Behavior, for which he won the 2013 PEN/E.O. Wilson Literary Science Writing Award for a book of literary nonfiction on the subject of the physical or biological sciences. In this interview, Mlodinow explains how we have trouble poking holes in our own suppositions.Leonard Mlondinow is a physicist, author, and screenwriter best known for coauthoring (with Stephen Hawking) the New York Times number-one best seller The Grand Design and the international best seller A Briefer History of Time, as well as The Drunkard's Walk: How Randomness Rules Our Lives, a New York Times notable book of the year.Next week we'll bring you another episode from the CFI Summit, as our second new co-host, journalist Lindsey Beyerstein, interviews Katherine Stewart, author of The Good News Club: The Christian Right's Stealth Assault on America's Children.Copyright 2013

William Carroll, Aquinas Fellow, Blackfriars College, Oxford, gives a talk for the Ian Ramsay Seminar Series on 10th March, 2011. The publication last September of The Grand Design by Stephen Hawking and Leonard Mlodinow has been the occasion for renewed discussion of the relationship between developments in cosmology and the doctrine of creation. Whether one speaks of quantum tunneling from nothing or some version of a multiverse hypothesis it seems easy to conclude, as Hawking and Mlodinow do, that "it is not necessary to invoke God . . . to set the Universe going." Confusion abounds in discussions about the explanatory domain of cosmology and what it means for God to create. The analysis of Thomas Aquinas concerning what, in principle, the natural sciences tell us about the world and the philosophical and theological understanding(s) of creation remains an anchor of intelligibility. In particular, Thomas' recognition that creation does not necessarily entail a temporally finite universe can help us to see that whatever kind of universe (or multiverse) there is, it is dependent upon a Creator for its existence.

Mlodinow - a physicist with the grace of a born storyteller - illuminates the improbable ways that chance and probability affect our daily lives.
