WICI Reading and Conversation with Madhur Anand

Join the Waterloo Institute for Complexity and Innovation for a reading and conversation with Madhur Anand, professor and author of the newly released "To Place a Rabbit". 

To prepare for the conversation, you may want to consider these thoughts from Dr. Anand:

A tipping point is a point when a threshold is crossed and leads to a sudden and often irreversible change, even when there are no obvious links to changes in the environment. There are three kinds:

  1. bifurcation tipping - deterministic and caused by nonlinear feedback loops
  2. noise-induced tipping - caused by random fluctuations
  3. rate-induced' tipping- caused by a fast rate of change in a parameter of the environment

The protagonist in my novel is someone who wants to find the tipping point between fact/reality and fiction because she is a scientist and doesn't know how to make things up but wants to write a novel.
