DURING HIS U.S. TOUR in 2008, Biologist and bestselling author Richard Dawkins met with some of the world's leading scientists to discuss topics such as Quantum Physics, Biology, Evolutionary Psychology, Science education, religion, atheism and more. This video brings you the fascinating unedited discussions between Richard Dawkins and Nobel Prize-winning Physicist Steven Weinberg, Physicist Lawrence Krauss, Biologist and blogger PZ Myers, and Evolutionary Psychologist David Buss.

From a public conversation at Stanford University to private conversations in Austin and Minneapolis, this collection offers a rare and inspirational opportunity to observe some of today's top scientists as they discuss some of the big issues without interruption.

  • The Nature of Reality is just utterly fascinating.

  • A WONDERFUL discussion! The moment where Weinberg goes "It' s got to be at least... 1 0000000000 0000000000 0000000000 0000000000 0000000000 0000000000 0000000000 0000000000 0000000000 0000000000 0000000000 0000000000 thats a little disturbing..." (rubbing his face with the hand) PRICELESS! LOL! I love these guys! LoveLoveLoveLove!

  • 1:34 When I was in secondary school, my physics teacher would always correct us when we said "degrees Kelvin". If only I could have shown him a video of Steve Weinberg saying it that way...

  • 7:25 that face: "I don't know what the fuck he's talking about"

  • @tennis12456 lol

  • I hope genetic engineering can give me a brain like one of these guys one day. : )

  • A tip to anyone trying to look smart, don't sit next to Steven Weinberg.

  • Watch Dawkin's face as Weinberg's breaking it down to him... Looks like he just heard about outer space for the first time.....LOL 5:02

    Just look at the frigin size of Weinberg's dome. You know how much brain you can stuff in that melon?!?! Jeez... Gotta be some quantum fluctuations goin on in there.

  • @ktawut Yes, that's true, but one cannot help but feel a sense of wonder when he talks about certain ideas.

  • Weinberg is astonishing! His physics gets underneath some of the greatest truths ever searched for. It takes a lot to make Dawkins the student rather than the teacher. This is two men of great minds in a fantastic dialog.

  • Carl Sagan called the multiverse the 'cosmos'. I think that is a more descriptive word.
