Ehrlich to talk Nov. 25 at Café Scientifique
Café Scientifique, a community forum for the informal debate of science issues, will present a talk on Nov. 25 by Paul Ehrlich, PhD, co-author of the new book The Dominant Animal: Human Evolution and the Environment.
Café Scientifique started in 1998 in the United Kingdom with the goal of promoting public engagement with science. The Stanford Blood Center joined the international network of cafés in 2007. This is its seventh lecture.
The talk will be at noon at Stanford University Bookstore. Admission is free, and complementary cookies and coffee will be served.
Ehrlich, the Bing professor of population studies in the department of biology, co-wrote the book with his wife, Anne Ehrlich, a senior research scientist in the biology department.
Ehrlich, who also wrote the controversial 1968 best-seller The Population Bomb, will discuss the evolutionary dominance of the human population.
