World Science Festival Meet the Authors
Science And Story Café: Meet The Authors
World Science Festival - May 31, 2014

Astrophysicist Katherine Freese [described] her writing process for The Cosmic Cocktail: Three Parts Dark Matter. It’s not a mixology text, despite the cocktail shaker on the jacket; “it’s a recipe for the cosmos,” Freese said, plus the story of her own quest to find dark matter, the mysterious stuff that makes up 95 percent of our universe. She added that she had to learn how to weave a strong narrative, because “telling a story makes readers more interested in science,” and she hoped that her work would inspire more women to become involved in physics.
