Comedian
Robin Ince quickly abandoned science at school, bored by a fog of dull lessons and intimidated by the barrage of equations.
But, twenty years later, he fell in love and he now presents one of the
world’s most popular science podcasts. Every year he meets hundreds of the
world’s greatest thinkers and in this talk, based on his latest erudite and witty book, he reveals why scientific wonder isn’t just
for the professionals. With book signing.
