Together with Jack Szostak, a biochemist and Nobel laureate, he's written a kind of cosmic “what-dunnit” that shifts between the many and various disciplines that may someday provide the answers they seek about life's origins.

Conversations Beyond Science and Religion - Philip ComellaConversations Beyond Science and Religion – Mario Livio: Brilliant Blunders, God, and MathematicsOn this show, Philip Comella talks with bestselling author, Mario Livio, about the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics in explaining the universe, and the “brilliant blunders” of great scientists. Whether looked at through the lens of science or religion, the success of mathematics in explaining the world can only be called a deep mystery. Mario Livio also discusses his new book, Brilliant Blunders, where he shows that the practice of science is not a steady, direct march to truth; rather, great scientists at times stumble and blunder their way into dead ends, some of which, however, wind up opening the door...2014-08-0455 min

Point of InquiryMario Livio - Brilliant Blunders From Darwin to EinsteinHost: Chris Mooney
One thing we often forget about great scientists, especially as they are lionized and mythologized: they made mistakes. Sometimes big ones. Sometimes, even, brilliant ones.
Charles Darwin, for instance, didn't understand genetics. He and Gregor Mendel were as ships passing in the night. Granted, Darwin eventually realized that he needed a better theory of heredity in order for his idea of natural selection to work—so he came up with "pangenesis," a completely wrong idea that... well, the less said about it the better.
But Darwin isn't the only one. Fr...2013-06-2030 minPoint of InquiryMario Livio - Brilliant Blunders From Darwin to EinsteinHost: Chris Mooney
