Voices
Perpetuating knowledge and transmitting the love for it to the next generation of humans is essential to humans’ survival and to each individual’s full enjoyment of life.
Here I collect the thoughts of a few friends, mentors, and colleagues on this topic – it’s work in progress and more voices will be added in the future. Enjoy the read!

THE SCIENCE OF CAN AND CAN’T
A Physicist’s Journey Through the Land of Counterfactuals
A luminous guide to how the radical new science of counterfactuals can reveal the full scope of our universe
There is a vast class of properties that science has so far almost entirely neglected. These properties are central to an understanding of physical reality both at an everyday level and at the level of fundamental phenomena, yet they have traditionally been thought of as impossible to incorporate into fundamental explanations. They relate not only to what is true - the actual - but to what could be true - the counterfactual.
This is the science of can and can't.
