It's been a busy 18 months, during which I've worked on FIVE new books. Three of them are now published:

​

Science Is Beautiful: Disease And Medicine is a follow-up to The Human Body Through The Microscope which I wrote in 2014. A close-up look at what goes wrong with the body and how we fix it, it came out at the end of 2017.

​

And my third boook in the Science is Beautiful series has just hit the shops. Science is Beautiful: Botanical Life has some stunning microscopic images of the evolutionary variety of the plant world.

​

Last year I co-authored 100 Books that Changed the World with the late Scott Christianson. It was Scott's third contribution to a series which includes Diagrams and Documents. I have now added 100 Speeches that Changed the World to the list. Books is out now, and Speeches is in production.

​

And finally, I contributed thirteen articles for the lavishly illustrated Rock Stars at Home. It looks at famous musicians' domestic sanctuaries and my subjects inclued Chuck Berry, Bob Dylan, Elton John and Debbie Harry. It's out in September 2018.
