About this episode
Science is powerful — and our speaker today, Oxford theoretical physicist Dr. Ard Louis, agrees. But when it comes to life's biggest questions, like “Why is there something rather than nothing?” and “What makes us human?”, what does science's power contribute?
In this encore episode, you'll hear from Dr. Ard Louis in a 2019 Veritas Forum at the University of Birmingham in the UK. He explores science’s strengths and limitations and invites us to consider how the big questions in our lives might have more than solely scientific answers.
