The Top Ten Bestseller Black holes. DNA. The Large Hadron Collider.
Ever had that sneaking feeling that you are missing out on some
truly spectacular science? You do? Well, fear not, for help is at
hand. Ben Miller was working on his Physics PhD at Cambridge when
he accidentally became a comedian. But first love runs deep, and he
has returned to his roots to share with you all his favourite bits
of science. This is the stuff you really need to know, not only
because it matters but because it will quite simply amaze and
delight you. 'Let me show you another, perhaps less familiar side
of Science; her beauty, her seductiveness and her passion. And
let's do it quickly, while Maths isn't looking' Ben Miller 'This
book makes climate change actually seem interesting. Not just
important - it's obviously important - but interesting. As a result
I bought lots of other books about climate change, something I now
regret' David Mitchell Ben Miller is, like you, a mutant ape living
through an Ice Age on a ball of molten iron, orbiting a
supermassive black hole. He is also an actor, comedian and
approximately one half of Armstrong & Miller. He's presented a
BBC Horizon documentary on temperature and a Radio 4 series about
the history of particle physics, and has written a science column
for The Times. He is slowly coming to terms with the idea that he
may never be an astronaut.
