Ever since the launch of The Half-Life of Facts, it's been a fun media whirlwind. I've had a number of essays and excerpts published, some videos published, reviews, and more.
First of all, here are two videos providing overviews of my book. The first is my talk at TEDxKC and the second is an interview from the Kauffman Foundation.
And here's a roundup of some articles I've written related to the book so far:
- Big data: Mind the gaps Boston Globe
- Paradox of Hoaxes: How Errors Persist, Even When Corrected Wired Opinion
- From Insight to Naches Arc
- The Importance of Computational Discoveries in Health, The Atlantic
- Change: The One Enduring Principle Forbes
- Facts change, people don’t Salon
- Truth decay: The half-life of facts New Scientist
The book has also been reviewed in Nature, Fortune,Slate, Scientific American, among other outlets. More reviews can be found here.
And as I note on my website, in the spirit of the half-life of facts and the continuous approach towards a better understanding of our universe (and in homage to Donald Knuth's errata for his computer science classics), I have included a continually updated downloadable document detailing updates and errata for my book.
It is all a fun adventure so far!
