Win a copy of Why Icebergs Float with Goodreads!

To celebrate a year since the publication of Why Icebergs Float, we've teamed up with Goodreads to offer avid readers the opportunity to win one of three copies! To enter, use the line below [free membership required]. From paintings and food to illness and icebergs, science is happening everywhere. Rather than follow the path of a syllabus or textbook, Andrew Morris takes examples from the science we see every day and uses them as entry points to explain a number of fundamental scientific concepts – from understanding colour to the nature of hormones – in ways that anyone can grasp. While each chapter offers a separate story, they are linked together by their fascinating relevance to our daily lives. If you can't wait to read it, it can be downloaded for free from here, or viewed online here. The topics explored in each chapter are based on hundreds of discussions the author has led with adult science learners over many years – people who came from all walks of life and had no scientific training, but had developed a burning curiosity to understand the world around them. This book encourages us to reflect on our own relationship with science and serves as an important reminder of why we should continue learning as adults
