Episode 94; How to Build a Universe, Review

30/1/2018

 
How to Build a Universe An Infinite Monkey Cage Adventure, to give it its full name is part book companion to the Infinite Monkey Podcast, part science book and part chance for Robin Ince, Profeesor Brian Cox and Alexandra Feachem to have fun and entertain the listener.

In these three areas the book is a success. You may not be able to build a universe on the books completion but you will have more of a insight on the theory of its creation.

Read with humour by the three writers this is a great listen and well worth your time. I just wish it was longer (I'm greedy that way).

Episode 87; The Butchering Art, Review

16/1/2018

 
​The Butchering Art: Joseph Lister's Quest to Transform the Grisly World of Victorian Medicine, to give it its full tittle is a look at the life and achievements of Joseph Lister.

At a time when surgery was a gamble thanks to poor hygiene standards Lister transformed the surgical approach from a squalid affair to one that actively promoted the cleanliness we are accustomed to today.

​The book itself does a great job in giving Lister context allowing for quite a few anecdotes which help to give the listening experience a greater depth.

Episode 52; Secrets of the Human Body, Review

24/10/2017

 
A journey around the Human body in a slightly more unique way than most of us are used to, is the best way I would describe The Secrets of the Human Body.

With the cutting edge in mind you will not get the basic overview (even though that is still fascinating) of the human body instead the creators look at the cutting edge of science related to biology and bring that into a very palatable format.

The narration and information contained are brilliant and will hopefully leave you wanting more.
