Science is a serious business, right? Wrong. Scientists have been
participants in the best reality show of all time, with all the
highs, lows, bust-ups, and strange personalities of any show on
telly today. This hugely accessible history of science reveals the
human stories behind the biggest discoveries. For example, we meet
Charles Darwin as he weighs up the pros and cons of marrying his
cousin: 'constant companion' vs 'less money for books'. Tough call.
To Boldly Go Where No Book Has Gone Before covers everything from
space travel and evolution to alchemy and AI. Written by one of our
leading scientists, this is an insider's account that celebrates
the joy of science. It is filled with all the juicy bits that other
histories leave out.
