Theoretical physicist Leonard Mlodinow talks about his new book Elastic, which explains the idea of “elastic thinking.” Mlodinow argues that this kind of thinking is necessary to solve the confluence of problems we regularly encounter. By using recent scientific studies and history to bolster this theory, Mlodinow offers insights into how elastic thinking arises in the brain and how we can master it. Leonard Mlodinow will be in conversation with Deepak Chopra on March 28 at 7 pm at the Rubin Museum (150 West 17th Street). This segment is guest hosted by Hari Kondabolu.
