A presentation by Prof. Jack Cohen, co-author of the ‘Science of Discworld’  books

The Science of Discworld is a trilogy (with a fourth title expected soon) of popular science books written by Terry Pratchett in collaboration with mathematician Ian Stewart and biologist Jack Cohen.

Each book combines a Discworld-based story by Pratchett interwoven with chapters on real world science by Stewart and Cohen. In this highly entertaining presentation, Professor Cohen will help us to view the science underpinning our world (‘Roundworld’) from a completely different perspective.

Join us for a talk that will appeal to everyone with an interest in science, as well as to fans of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld series.

Free entry (donations appreciated).     Everyone welcome!
