For Essex Book Festival 2018, our friends at Chelmsford Theatres are putting on some excellent literary related and book inspired events this March, celebrating reading, writing and the book in all its forms.

One of the most instantly recognisable scientists in the country, Robert Winston is a compelling speaker, bringing complex issues to life with infectious enthusiasm and energy. This illuminating talk reveals how we can all improve our learning.

Professor Robert Winston  has been responsible for making science understandable to generations, from Your Life in Their Hands on BBC Television from 1979 – 1987 and The Human Body in 1998 to more recent programmes on the human mind. He is one of our leading specialists on fertility and IVF and popularised the subject with television series such as Making Babies in 1996 and The Human Body in 1998, The Secret Life of Twins in 1999 and Superhuman in 2000.  Most recently he presented six programme for BBC’s Child against All Odds. His most recent book on science is The Utterly Amazing Human Body, a pop-up book that teaches children how the body works.
