Description
"From a star theoretical physicist, a journey into the world of particle physics and the cosmos--and a call for a more liberatory practice of science. In The Disordered Cosmos, Dr. Chanda Prescod-Weinstein shares her love for physics, from the Standard Model of particle physics and what lies beyond it, to the physics of melanin in skin, to the latest theories of dark matter-all with a new spin informed by history, politics, and the wisdom of Star Trek. One of fewer than one hundred Black American women to earn a PhD from a department of physics, Prescod-Weinstein presents a vision of the universe is vibrant, buoyantly non-traditional, and grounded in Black feminist lineages. Prescod-Weinstein urges us to recognize how science, like most fields, is rife with racism, misogyny, and other forms of oppression. She lays out a bold new approach to science and society that begins with the belief that we all have a fundamental right to know and love the night sky."--,Provided by publisher.
