Join us every other Tuesday for an open-ended casual discussion with our book club for Roger Penrose's ***The Road to Reality,*** the magnum opus of one of the greatest theoretical physicists of our time. In a single volume, Penrose takes the reader from basic mathematical and logical arguments through advanced math and then onto modern physics, relativity, quantum theory, and beyond.

Please have access to a copy of the book and have read at least one chapter prior to attending. We normally agree to read one particular chapter in advance and then spend our meeting time discussing that chapter and its problem set, sometimes branching off to other parts of the book. We support each other to go at whatever pace is comfortable and we discuss material that we find interesting or challenging. Those of us who want to work on the problem sets can help one another. Sometimes someone will want to make a mini-presentation on a topic of their liking. We also maintain a private chat room for those who want to stay in touch between meetings.

This event is one of the many regular study topics in our *Physics With Friends* community. Please check **[all of our other events](https://www.meetup.com/physicswithfriends/events/)** to find additional physics topics that you might want to study together!
