Survival of the Friendliest: Understanding Our Origins and Rediscovering Our Common Humanity
by Brian Hare and Vanessa Woods

About the Event
What to expect
Come join us for a lively discussion of popular neuroscience books. We provide some light refreshments and drinks. If the weather is nice, we’ll sit outside in the backyard. We start the meeting with a book summary and then move into the discussion.
Didn’t read the book? No problem!
A lot of our discussion revolves around personal experience and knowledge related to the neuroscience topic. The diversity of our members’ lives, opinions, and expertise makes the experience special. Feel free to come, even if you didn’t finish the book.
What if you missed it?
Send us an email saying you would like to join our mailing list! After every discussion, we send out our summary with thought questions to mull over.
