Military Training and Compelling Experience

Monday, November 3, 2008 @ 5:00 pm EST

In this lecture, Sharon Ghamari-Tabrizi will talk about the various meanings of what counts as a “compelling experience” for military simulation — and how this phrase “compelling experience” can be used as a thematic marker for differentiating the present moment from cold war-era immersive simulations. Ms. Ghamari-Tabrizi is an independent scholar currently living in Altamonte Springs, Florida. She is the author of The Worlds of Herman Kahn: The Intuitive Science of Thermonuclear War (Harvard University Press, 2005).

Co-sponsored by the STS Colloquium.
