To: Jeffrey [email protected]] From: John Brockman Sent: Mon 10/5/2009 7:12:29 PM Subject: Roger Lewin Any number of bright journalists know the people you work with and can range across the disciplines. Why don't you start with Roger Lewin. I hired him to write Murray's original proposal for "The Quark and the Jaguar" (he didn't want to write the book). He is Richard Leakey's coauthor of "Origins" and "Origins Reconsidered". I brought him in as the book doctor to fix George Smoot's book "Wrinkles in Time" . He wrote his own book, entitled "Complexity" about the goings on at SFI in the 90s. He coauthored Irene Pepperberg's best seller on Alex the parrot Right now he's the outside editor for Mahzarin Banaji's book on Implicit Bias, and he's set to work as outside editor which Craig Venter is going to write when Craig makes his big announcement in the near future. Before book writing he wan a New Scientist editor. He divides his time between Cambridge, MA and New Hampshire. I told him about what you're looking for and he is expecting your call. (Thursday he leaves for a trip to Sante Fe.
