1491: Rewriting the History Before Columbus - Charles C. Mann

Lecture Date: August 8, 2013
Charles Mann's most recent book,
1491, won the U.S. National Academy of Sciences' Keck Award
for the best book of the year. A correspondent for The Atlantic Monthly,
Science, and Wired, he has covered the intersection of science, technology,
and commerce for many newspapers and magazines here and
abroad, including BioScience, The Boston Globe, Fortune, The New York Times,
Smithsonian, Vanity Fair and The Washington Post. In addition to 1491,
he has co-written four other books:
The Second Creation: Makers of the Revolution in 20th-Century Physics,
The Aspirin Wars: Money, Medicine, and 100 Years of Rampant Competition.
He is now working on a companion volume to 1491; an early excerpt appeared in
National Geographic in May 2007.
