Nicholas Christakis and The War on Science
In this powerful conversation, Yale physician and sociologist Nicholas Christakis joins Lawrence Krauss to discuss his chapter in The War on Science—a timely and nuanced examination of how ideological forces from both the Left and the Right are undermining scientific integrity. Christakis challenges critics who dismiss the book as one-sided, offering a compelling case for why progressive attacks on science must be taken seriously alongside threats from the political Right.
Dr. Nicholas Christakis is a leading voice at the intersection of science, society, and policy. His pioneering research on social networks, human behavior, and public health offers powerful insights into how ideas—and ideologies—spread. With a rare ability to translate complex science into compelling storytelling, Dr. Christakis equips audiences with the tools to navigate today’s most pressing challenges.
