My talk last week at Carleton University in Ottawa went well–here’s an interview with the university’s magazine, and here’s a report from someone in the audience.
More talks are coming up–
Next week: The evolution of whales at Mote Marine Laboratory in Sarasota, Florida.
Next month: Soul Made Flesh at the University of Denver.
And plenty more coming in May and June…
[Update: I should also mention that if there’s anyone interested in my giving a talk, the good people at the Knopf Speakers Bureau will be able to help you. ]
