This time of year is perfect for tuning in to the sounds of nature, getting ready for the summer festival season and, of course, putting off all those spring cleaning chores and settling in to read a seasonal crop of popular science books.
This spring, CultureLab has found an especially tasty bunch and we?d like to give you the chance to win five of our top picks.
The set includes How it Began, in which astronomer Chris Impey rewinds to the start of everything - and examines just how the universe is ?mocking us with its secrets?. Next up is Immortality by Stephen Cave, who believes that our desire to live forever is the major force driving human civilisation.
Also in the collection is John Long?s Darwin?s Devices, where the biologist makes a case for robotics as a tool for better understanding evolution, showing how robots can serve as models of organisms and shed light on why certain creatures evolved as they did. And completing the pack are marine ecologist Rafe Sagarin?s manual for taking self-defence lessons from nature, Learning from the Octopus, and quantum physicist Jim Al-Khalili?s latest work exploring the puzzles of the universe, Paradox.
The competition is open to subscribers and registered users. See the full terms and conditions and go to our competition page for your chance to win a set of all five books.
