Science & the City is your guidebook to that hidden world, helping you to uncover some of the remarkable technologies that keep the world`s great metropolises moving. Laurie Winkless takes us around cities in six continents to find out how they`re dealing with the challenges of feeding, housing, powering & connecting more people than ever before. In this book, you`ll meet urban pioneers from history, along with today`s experts in everything from roads to time, & you will uncover the vital role science has played in shaping the city around you. But more than that, by exploring cutting-edge research from labs across the world, you`ll build your own vision of the megacity of tomorrow, based on science fact rather than science fiction. Science & the City is the perfect read for anyone curious about the world they live in.

Science in the Soul is a kaleidoscopic argument for the power & glory of science: the wonder of scientific discovery; the practical necessity of scientific endeavour to society; & the importance of the scientific way of thinking
- particularly in today`s `post-truth` world. With an introduction & new commentary by the author in dialogue with himself across the years, the essays, journalism, lectures & letters gathered here range over subjects from evolution & Darwinian natural selection to the role of scientist as prophet, whether science is itself a religion, the probability of alien life in other worlds, & the beauties, cruelties & oddities of earthly life in this one. A sparkling showcase for his rapier wit, the clarity, precision & vigour he brings to an argument, the beauty of his prose, the depth of his feeling & his capacity for joy, Science in the Soul is further evidence of Richard Dawkins` status as one of science`s all-time great communicators.
