Cafe Scientific: The Gloriously Messy Universe!


Sunday 1730 Cafe Scientific: The Gloriously Messy Universe!
ABC Radio National

Presented by Lynne Malcolm, published in Big Ideas, ABC Radio National, January 9th 2011.

Is there an ultimate theory of everything? Could it be possible that after decades of searching, it may turn out that the universe is not perfectly and elegantly designed?

According to author Marcelo Gleiser, the universe is gloriously messy and we hear his controversial views... along with alternative views from our panel of astronomers. This forum was recorded at the 2010 Brisbane Writers festival and your host is Dr Paul Willis from ABC TV's Catalyst program.
