The Four and Loop Quantum Gravity
Today we look at some books about where we are now. We start with Scott Galloway’s “Post Corona: From Crisis to Opportunity.” The publisher says, “The COVID-19 outbreak has turned bedrooms into offices, pitted young against old, and widened the gaps between rich and poor, red and blue. But as author Scott Galloway argues, the pandemic has not been a change agent so much as an accelerant of trends already well underway….” What is this going to mean for all of us? Then we look at some “Great Courses” from Robert Greenberg, Music Historian-in-Residence with San Francisco Performances; and Steven L. Goldman, the Andrew W. Mellon Distinguished Professor in the Humanities at Lehigh University. We finish with Jim Baggott’s “Quantum Space: Loop Quantum Gravity and the Search for the Structure of Space, Time, and the Universe”
