A JBC Author Series Event

If you like Marty Supreme, you won’t want to miss this program! 

Join us for a thought-provoking conversation with acclaimed author Steven Landsburg about his latest book, Ping. In the ear­ly 1950s, ping pong wasn’t just a pas­time — it was pro­pa­gan­da. A qui­et weapon in the bat­tle for influ­ence, pow­er, and ide­ol­o­gy. Alter­nat­ing between the piv­otal 1971 Ping-Pong Diplo­ma­cy — where a sim­ple game of table ten­nis thawed the icy rela­tions between the U.S. and Chi­na dur­ing the Cold War — and the present-day strug­gles of a fam­i­ly weighed down by lega­cy, Ping is a com­pelling tale of his­to­ry, pol­i­tics, and per­son­al con­flict.
