Overview

From a star theoretical physicist, a journey into the world of particle physics and the cosmosā€”and a call for a more liberatory practice of science.

InĀ The Disordered Cosmos, Dr. Chanda Prescod-Weinstein shares her love for physics, from the Standard Model of Particle Physics and what lies beyond it, to the physics of melanin in skin, to the latest theories of dark matterā€”along with a perspective informed by history, politics, and the wisdom of Star Trek.Ā 

One of the leading physicists of her generation, Dr. Chanda Prescod-Weinstein is also one of fewer than one hundred Black American women to earn a PhD from a department of physics. Her vision of the cosmos is vibrant, buoyantly nontraditional, and grounded in Black and queer feminist lineages.Ā 

Dr. Prescod-Weinstein urges us to recognize how science, like most fields, is rife with racism, misogyny, and other forms of oppression. She lays out a bold new approach to science and society, beginningĀ with the belief that we all have a fundamental right to know and love the night sky.Ā The Disordered CosmosĀ dreams into existence a world that allows everyone to experience and understand the wonders of the universe.
