Vroman’s Bookstore: Vroman’s Bookstore celebrates 100 years of Caltech with David Zierler
David Zierler, Caltech’s institutional historian, is the Ronald and Maxine Linde Director of the Caltech Heritage Project. This year he published To Illuminate Nature, from Molecules to the Cosmos, a beautifully illustrated book about Caltech’s first century of discovery and impact. Based on oral history interviews of Caltech’s leading faculty, staff, trustees, and alumni with accompanying essays and photographs, To Illuminate Nature charts the remarkable story of a small research institute in Pasadena whose researchers have changed the world through their world-leading work in science, engineering, and space exploration.
This is a free event in celebration of Caltech. Please use our free RSVP form to let us know if you can join us. The book, which is not available for sale, will be made available to the first 50 attendees who arrive for the presentation. The event space will be open for seating by 4pm and early arrival is encouraged.
