Associate Professor of Psychology Sam Sommers tonight will do a brief reading from his new book, "Situations Matter: Understanding How Context Transforms Your World," which was released on Dec. 29, and then host a question−and−answer session and book signing.
The event will take place at 7:00 p.m. in Barnum 008.
Sommers' book focuses on the psychology of everyday life and is based on his Social Psychology course at Tufts.
"It's about the power of ordinary, day−to−day situations to shape how we think, behave and the kind of people we are," Sommers told the Daily in an interview.
Books will also be available for purchase at the event.
