Ep 63: Knowledge Lost and Knowledge Regained


Listen Later

We often assume that all knowledge is recorded, and every generation builds on the knowledge of past generations. This is not true. Much knowledge is lost -- and some is regained.

Welcome to Episode 63 of Everything is Everything, a weekly podcast hosted by Amit Varma and Ajay Shah.

In this episode, Amit and Ajay discuss precious knowledge of remarkable things that we lost over time -- some of which we are slowly regaining!
