Adam Rogers

Adam Rogers is a science journalist and best-selling author. His book Proof: The Science of Booze, about the science of making and consuming alcohol, was a New York Times bestseller, winner of the IACP Best Wine, Spirits, and Beer Book Award and shortlisted for the PEN/E.O. Wilson Literary Science Writing Award. Rogers’ new book Full Spectrum: How the Science of Color Made Us Modern looks at the long (and rainbow-shaped) arc of color—its physics and chemistry, but also how humans make it, and how our eyes and brains construct it in our minds. Rogers is a senior correspondent at Business Insider, and he lives in the California Bay Area.
