My laziness notwithstanding, I will not be outdone by this timely post of Carl's. Participants in this virtual book party, sponsored by the American Institute of Biological Sciences, may stand the chance to win a copy of Carl's The Tangled Bank--but I have just confirmed that 3-5 publisher's copies of Unscientific America will also be on offer. Let's quote Carl on all the event details, so I don't have to try to write them up better than he does:
What’s a virtual book party you ask? In this case, fellow Discover blogger Chris Mooney and I will each give a 15 minute talk about our new books. From the slipper-and-pajama’d comfort of your home or office (if you wear slippers and pajamas at the office), you can listen to us speak and behold our slide presentations in real time. After we’re through, there will be time for a virtual conversation between you and us. The event (which will last about an hour) is hosted by the American Institute of Biological Sciences.
Carl speaks first, then me. And my slide show won't have the usual bells and whistles. But, sign up now
, I hear they are going fast....
