DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Denialism: How Irrational Thinking Hinders Scientific Progress, Harms the Planet, and Threatens Our Lives=0D=0A=0D=0AMichael Specter, Author, Denialism; Staff Writer, The New Yorker=0D=0A=0D=0ASpecter says that Americans have come to mistrust institutions, especially science, more today than ever before. For centuries, the general view had been that science is neither good nor bad, that it merely supplies information and that new information is always beneficial. Now, science is often viewed as a political constituency that isn't always in our best interest. =0D=0A=0D=0AMLF: Science & Technology=0D=0A=0D=0ALocation: SF Club Office, The Commonwealth Club of California, 595 Market Street, 2nd Floor, San Francisco, California=0D=0A=0D=0ATime: 5:30 p.m. networking, 6 p.m. program, 7 p.m. book signing=0D=0ACost: $8 members, $15 non-members=0D=0AProgram Organizer: Chisako Ress and Barbara Massey=0D=0ARegistration:  https://tickets.commonwealthclub.org/open.asp?show=1435=0D=0A=0D=0ACOST AND REGISTRATION:=0D=0A$8 members, $15 non-members.=0D=0Ahttps://tickets.commonwealthclub.org/open.asp?show=3D1435=0D=0A=0D=0AMORE INFO: =0D=0AEvent Website: http://www.commonwealthclub.org=0D=0AEvent Email: club@commonwealthclub.org=0D=0AEvent Phone: 415-597-6705=0D=0AVenue website: http://www.commonwealthclub.org=0D=0AVenue Phone: 415-597-6705=0D=0A=0D=0ASponsored by The Commonwealth Club of California=0D=0AThe Commonwealth Club of California is the nation's oldest and largest public affairs forum, bringing together its more than 18,000 members for over 400 annual events on topics ranging across politics, culture, society and the economy.
