LECTURES

  "If you are a simple system and we give you a push, you bounce away. If you are a complex atomism, you may still bounce away but three weeks later you continue to wonder why we did it." -Arthur Iberall  
     
 

The Arthur S. Iberall Distinguished Annual Lecture Series has been established at the University of Connecticut in Storrs, Connecticut, in collaboration with the Center for the Ecological Study of Perception and Action (CESPA) and the International Society for Ecological Psychology (ISEP). Every year, a scientist is chosen who has explored connections between physical processes and their manifestations in nature, life, humankind, mind, and society. The lecture is published in the journal Ecological Psychology.
