From Theorems to Serums, From Cryptography to Cosmology … and The Simpsons

Join Simon Singh, who will take us on a whistle-stop tour of his bestselling books. “Fermat’s Last Theorem” looks at one of the biggest mathematical puzzles of the millennium; “The Code Book” shares the secrets of cryptology; “Big Bang” explores the history of cosmology; “Trick or Treatment” asks some hard questions about alternative medicine; “The Simpsons and Their Mathematical Secrets” explains how TV writers, throughout the cartoon’s 25-year history, have smuggled in mathematical jokes. Then, the audience is in charge and you can ask whatever questions interest you, which might cover Simon’s books or his film-making, or his interest in pseudoscience or his libel case or anything else. You can find out more about Simon on his Wikipedia page … most of it is true.”
