What do music visionary Brian Eno, kinetic sculptor Theo Jansen, science writer Mary Roach, Mythbuster Adam Savage, and Pulitzer-winning journalist Thomas Friedman have in common? They are all game-changers: scientists, artists, entertainers, and activists who revolutionized their fields with bold new perspectives and approaches—and they all had transformative, course-setting experiences at the Exploratorium.
Join them and 45 more brilliant thinkers and doers in a wonderfully playful, insightful, and sometimes incredibly moving journey to see how you, too, can harness your powers of observation, inquiry, and engagement to be the change you want to see in the world—regardless of who you are or what you do.
Packed with dozens of interviews, insights, and activities suggested by artists, scientists, poets, and politicians, this is a book that’s guaranteed to make you a more creative person. And maybe just change the world.
Internationally acclaimed as the first hands-on science museum of its kind, the Exploratorium invites visitors to explore the world through science, art, and human perception, providing inquiry-based, mind-expanding experiences that transform learning. Located in San Francisco, the museum is home to more than 600 interactive exhibits, all of which create an otherworldly and awe-inspiring experience of everyday physical forces. More than 1 million people visit the museum annually, and 13 million visit its website.
