This volume collects essays from prominent intellectuals and public
figures based on talks given at the 2015 Darwin College Lectures on
the theme of 'development'. The writers are world-renowned experts
in such diverse fields as architecture, astronomy, biology, climate
science, economy, psychology, sports and technology. Development
includes contributions from developmental biologist and Nobel
laureate John B. Gurdon, Olympic gold medallist Katherine Grainger,
astronomer and cosmologist Richard Ellis, developmental
psychologist Bruce Hood, former Met Office Chief Scientist Julia
Slingo, architect Michael Pawlyn, development economist Ha-Joon
Chang and serial entrepreneur Hermann Hauser. While their
perspectives and interpretations of development vary widely, their
essays are linked by a common desire to describe and understand how
things change, usually in the direction of ever-increasing
complexity. Written with the lay reader in mind, this
interdisciplinary book is a must-read for anybody interested in the
mechanisms underlying the changes we see in the world around us.
