<p class="MsoNormal">This is a reminder to join the Program in Science, Technology, and Society
<b><span style="color:red">tomorrow, October 10<sup>th</sup> </span></b>at <b>4:15 PM
</b>for a special talk by guest lecturer Sarah Tarlow<b> </b>on <b><span style="font-family:Aptos;color:black;background:white">Radical Honesty: Life Writing, Academic Writing and Living Dangerously.
</span></b><b><span style="font-family:Aptos;background:white"><o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Aptos;color:black;background:white">What makes a powerful memoir? While telling a great story certainly helps, Sarah Tarlow will argue what distinguishes the best life writing is radical honesty. Furthermore, the
principles of radical honesty applied back to our academic writing and, indeed, to our other endeavors, result in more innovative, exciting, critical, and transformative work. She will discuss and read from her own memoir,
<i>The Archaeology of Loss</i>, which combines her expertise as an archaeologist specializing in the archaeology of death and burial, with the personal experience of being a long-term care-taker for her ill husband.

more than 10 academic books on topics like the archaeology of death, historical archaeology in Britain and Ireland, the archaeology of the body, and archaeological ethics. In 2023, her memoir
