Jon Butterworth
Book Shambles
Professor Jon Butterworth is a regular at many of our live shows and he’s also written two top selling popular science books about physics, his latest, A Map of the Invisible, has recently come out in paperback. So he dropped by the studio to chat about it with Josie and Robin as well as climate change, where science meets politics, reading more fiction and Josie’s update on Dark Matter.
