Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema: Brian Greene: Understanding the Cosmos—and Our Place Within It
Explore humanity's search for meaning in an evolving universe with the world-renowned physicist and best-selling author of The Elegant Universe.
Brian Greene is one of the world’s most influential scientists. The Director of Columbia University's Center for Theoretical Physics, a best-selling author, and the host of the Emmy Award-winning NOVA miniseries, he was won millions of readers—and Twitter followers—with his mind-expanding, yet always accessible, explorations of humanity’s place in the universe. Until the End of Time is his latest, eagerly anticipated journey through the cosmos. Through a series of nested stories that explain distinct but interwoven layers of reality—from consciousness to black holes—Greene provides us with a clearer sense of how we came to be, a finer picture of where we are now, and a firmer understanding of where we are headed. As he offers a delightful grand tour of the universe from beginning to end, you’ll come to appreciate our fleeting but utterly exquisite moment in the cosmos.
In conversation with Nahlah Ayed, host of CBC Radio's Ideas.
