[phas-dept] Fwd: fiction reading: Wednesday, Feb. 8th, 5:30, Hall of Languages 203

[Matt Wood]

BTW, his book “Singularity” is available as a free podcast - find it in iTunes or podiobooks (follow the link to his website).  Kip Thorne is quoted as saying “I very much enjoyed Bill DeSmedt’s Singularity. ... Bill got the vast majority of the physics right, which is highly unusual — especially in a book that is such a good read.”

I haven’t listened/read it myself, yet, so standard disclaimers apply…
