You're listening to The Michael Shermer Show. All right, hey everybody, it's Michael Shermer and it's time for another episode of the Michael Shermer Show. My guest today has a special new book called Serendipity, here it is. It is the unexpected in science.
I'm going to go ahead and and describe it as the unexpected in in science and life. He is Telmo Pivani, full professor in the Department of Biology at the University of Padua, where he covers the first Italian chair of Philosophy of Biological Sciences, a leading evolutionist, science communicator, and columnist for what is this, Correri de la Serra? Am I saying that right? Uh he is the author of The Unexpected Life, Creation Without God.
We have to talk about that at some point after we talk about your new book. Imperfection. I remember when that book came out, it has a really interesting cover with like a wolf with a blue eye or something like that. Right. Exactly.
