Book of the day from OR Books: Tales of two planets: Stories of #climate change and #inequality in a divided world (2020). "We are swimming in facts, but a fact does not fully obtain the depth of a fact, the power of a fact, until it becomes part of a story." John Freeman, xvi

I am truly saddened by our loss of Bruno Latour, who tirelessly produced, wrote, and engaged with world communities of scientists, artists, scholars, and students. He will be remembered fondly at CADA where he visited with week long master class in 2017 BrunoLatour
