A paradigm-shifting scientific revolution redefined our understanding of the universe and our place within it, and a good part of it happened in our own lifetimes. From Marie Curie and Albert Einstein to Richard Feynman and Stephen Hawking, this pivotal era in human and scientific history spans the dawn of quantum mechanics and relativity to the rise of information technology and the ongoing promise of genetics and biotech. In this course, we explore the breakthrough discoveries and landmark inventions that fueled this transformation and shaped a century. Join us and discover how the world went from horse-drawn carriages to smartphones in one hundred years, and changed not only what we know, but how we live. No background in science is required, just curiosity and a desire to stimulate your mind. This course will be recorded. Students will have access to the video for 30 days.
