Summary

Inspiring life stories from BBC Radio 4's hit series The Life Scientific

'In showing non-scientists why science offers so many paths to discovery it has no equal' Gillian Reynolds, Telegraph

Based on Jim Al-Khalili's ground-breaking interviews, The Life Scientific: Explorers takes science out of its box and introduces us to the men and women who make it happen.

The explorers featured in this volume include: Simon Wessely on why chronic fatigue syndrome is real; Jeremey Farrar on fighting infectious diseases such as HIV, TB and avian flu; John Pickett on why there's nothing wrong with GM crops.
