The spring 2016 Berkeley Graduate Lectures series were quite a thought-provoking collection — including a peek into the history of gold and wine in the early days of California, how to best measure and communicate climate change, recent studies of neurology and the brain, how we view animals as selves, and a consideration of what is punishment and why we punish.
