ONLINE: "Nobel Prize Winners: Inspiring Stories" (Part 2)

This is the Saturday afternoon meeting for Socrates Cafe. It's online. We meet every couple Saturdays.

This meeting will be part 2 of our review of Nobel Prizes.
- which Nobel Prize winners are inspiring?
- which scientists didn't win but are worthy?
- who were the important pre-Nobel scientists?
- who are the significant women who have won the prize?

For the Q&A period, you are encouraged to bring a story that you enjoy from one of the Nobel categories: Physics, Chemistry, Medicine, Literature, Economics, Peace. You can easily pick a Nobel story from the links in the reading materials below. Hope you can join us!

Our meeting starts with a dialogue (about 15 minutes, recorded), and then an open discussion will follow (not recorded). You don't need to read any materials in advance.

Our group enjoys open-minded, respectful conversations on Philosophy and how it relates to science, culture, other belief systems, and even pop culture (books and movies). Sometimes "we agree to disagree", but the long-term goal is to improve our minds via group discussions.

This meeting is free and open to the public.
