Your Life Is Manufactured
Tim Minshall
From mega-factory floors, engineering laboratories and seaports to distribution hubs, supermarkets and our own homes, embark on an eye-opening guided tour through the world of manufacturing and its transformational influence on our lives - and the planet.
Charting the byzantine journeys taken by everyday items to reach us, Your Life is Manufactured reveals the seismic impact manufacturing has had on our lives and the natural world - and explores how it could offer us a path to a truly sustainable, more equitable future.
In doing so, Minshall grants us the ability to make better choices for ourselves, our communities and the planet.

The Meteorites: Encounters with Outer Space & Deep Time
Helen Gordon
From your window you can see the stars and distant planets: light years away, it's easy to think that our existences and theirs will never intersect.
Yet meteorites - mysterious, irregular rocks of sometimes immense value - connect us with the vastness of the universe. They may have brought the first life to our planet, and today they still reveal extraordinary scientific insights.
Helen Gordon reveals the fascinating stories of fallen meteorites and the lives they've touched - from collectors to kings, scientists to farmers. She learns what objects moving through space can tell us about the fragility of life on Earth.
