Paul Halpern, Author
SEPTEMBER 27, 2020 SCHEDULE
10:30 AM--Platform via Zoom
12:00 PM--Adult Learning Forum 
10:30 AM  |  PLATFORM  |  PAUL HELPERN  |  SYNCHRONICITY
Our live (via ZOOM) guest speaker will be author Paul Halpern, author of "Synchronicity: The Epic Quest to Understand the Quantum Nature of Cause and Effect."
In Synchronicity, Paul Halpern tells the little-known story of the unlikely friendship between Nobel-prize-winning physicist Wolfgang Pauli and the great psychologist Carl Jung. Their long collaboration has been essential to some of the most important physics of the last 100 years. Along the way, Halpern explores the difference between scientific and pseudoscientific connections throughout history, showing how we must be careful to subject any purported link to scientific analysis. With quantum physics, it can be tricky, but possible.
