About this listen

Can we resurrect dinosaurs, Jurassic Park-style? Are we living in the Matrix's digital simulation? Do aliens with acid blood exist somewhere in the universe? And just why were the original Planet of the Apes movies so terrible?

In Science(ish), Rick Edwards and Dr Michael Brooks confront all the questions that your favourite movies provoke. Inspired by their award-winning podcast, this popular (hopefully) science (definitely) audiobook dedicates each chapter to a different sci-fi classic and wittily explores the fascinating issues that arise.

Covering movies from 28 Days Later to Ex Machina, this is a joyous ride through astrophysics, neuroscience, psychology, botany, artificial intelligence, evolution and plenty more subjects you've always wanted to grasp.
