The Magicians, Cambridge, 2 March
January 8, 2020
This the story of those who demonstrated the central magic of science: its ability to predict the existence of things never before suspected which, when searched for, turn out to actually exist in the Universe. This is the story of the magicians, who not only predicted the existence of unknown worlds, black holes and unsuspected subatomic particles but antimatter, invisible waves that course through the air, and many other things besides. This is the story of the central magic of science and how it has made gods of men. To find out more, join author Marcus Chown as at Blackwell’s bookshop in Oxford at 11am on Saturday 29 February.
