Events details
Our world relies on information, from African talking drums to letters to texting. The mode might have changed, but the underlying principle remains: we are sending, storing and communicating knowledge. James Gleick, author of The Information and winner of 2012’s Royal Society Winton Prize for Science Books, joins us to talk about information – how we use it and why.
James Gleick is an author, journalist and biographer and winner of the 2012 Royal Society Winton Prize for Science Books.
