On the 20th of January at 6.00 pm the English mathematician and Nobel laureate Sir Roger Penrose will give a lecture online entitled From Black-Hole Singularities to Cyclic Cosmology.

He has also written a number of boos for the lay public, including: The emperor's new mind (1989), The nature of space and time (with S Hawking, 1996), The road to reality (2004) and Cycles of time (2010).
