Each week '''[https://discord.gg/v2gKpkq The Road to Reality Book Club]''' tackles a chapter of Sir Roger Penrose's [[Graph,_Wall,_Tome#The_Tome | Epic Tome]]. We use these meetings as an opportunity to write down the major points to be taken from our reading. Here we attempt to sum up what we believe Penrose was trying to convey and why. The hope is that these community-generated reading notes will benefit people in the future as they go on the same journey.
