Better known in the music world as E, Mark Oliver Everett is a solo artist and the leader of the band the Eels. But he’s also the son of a quantum physicist who developed the Many Worlds Theory –- an inspiration for sci-fi movies, books and "Star Trek" episodes. Everett joins us to talk about "Things the Grandchildren Should Know," a memoir that explores his complicated relationship with his father, who died when Everett was 18.

I'm looking forward to reading E's book, especially after watching the wonderful Nova documentary piece "Parallel Worlds, Parallel Lives." The book and the documentary should go hand in hand - just wanted to make sure it gets a mention.
