HOW KEVIN BACON CURED CANCER brings us a new view of the world, as we unfold the science behind 'Six Degrees of Separation'. We’ve all heard of the idea of “six degrees of separation”, that everyone in the world can be connected in just few steps. But what if those steps don’t just relate to people but also to viruses, web pages, neurons, species, molecules and even diseases? What if this “six degrees of separation” allowed us a glimpse of something much bigger at work?Something perhaps at the very core of Nature?
