Anderson on the growth of the global brain, Harvard physicist Lisa Randall on the true measure of breakthrough discoveries, Nobel Prize-winning physicist Frank Wilczec on why the 21st century will be shaped by our mastery of the laws of matter, music legend Peter Gabriel on tearing down the barriers between imagination and reality, Princeton physicist Freeman Dyson on the surprising ability of small (and cheap) upstarts to compete with billion-dollar projects.
