Attend the upcoming Author Event featuring Patrick L. Schmidt, the author of "Harvard’s Quixotic Pursuit of a New Science." This event will delve into the intriguing journey of social scientists at Harvard in the 1930s who dared to challenge conventional theories. Despite facing initial skepticism, they successfully established the Department of Social Relations, aiming to create a groundbreaking interdisciplinary science surpassing traditional disciplines. While the department fell short of its ambitious objective, it attracted exceptional faculty, generated significant scholarly contributions, and mentored numerous accomplished individuals. Far from ordinary, the department's history includes covert collaborations with governmental agencies, association with counterculture figures like Timothy Leary, and controversial experiments involving Theodore Kaczynski. Schmidt's engaging narrative sheds light on the department's tumultuous yet impactful legacy, marked by internal conflicts, arrogance, and controversies. Join this thought-provoking event at The Coop Harvard in CAMBRIDGE on March 28, 2024, to uncover the riveting tale of ambition and intrigue. Admission is free.
