Author Talk with Jeff Colvin

Jeff Colvin will discuss his new book Avoiding Apocalypse: How Science and Scientists Ended the Cold War. Avoiding Apocalypse tells the little-known story of the worldwide scientists’ boycott of the Soviet Union that set in motion an astonishing sequence of events. Starting simultaneously with the rise to power of an obscure Soviet bureaucrat named Mikhail Gorbachev, the boycott led not only to the end of the Cold War, but also to the end of the Soviet Union itself.
