Elizabeth Weingarten

So this book is really an exploration of how to fall in love with the questions of our lives, particularly the ones that can be painful, and especially in a culture in which so many of us have become addicted to fast, easy answers. And I'll say, too, this book is really about my journey to explore this question through science, history, philosophy, poetry, religion, art.

I love that. I have had many nicknames in my life. Having a very long name like Elizabeth Weingarten, you have to expect that. But different people in different parts of my life have given me different nicknames. My high school friends used to call me Dubs and my college friends called me Eliz. So I've never had like traditional Elizabeth nicknames.
