Looking for some non-fiction to read in 2021? Here's a list of some of what's coming from @BloomsburyBooks…

🐢 Ageless – @statto
Ageless is a guide to the science driving biology's biggest story: why we get old, and how we can stop it. Ageing is so deeply ingrained in human experience that we never think to ask: is it necessary?
'An immensely important book' Professor Lewis Dartnell

Wow, there's some actual research backing up the mushy-coloured voter fraction maps I made for the last General Election and the EU referendum!

Our research has found that red & blue US political maps create increased perceptions of polarization and more political stereotyping, compared to more accurate purple maps.

At a dinner for a bunch of lawyers some time ago, a non-lawyer friend made a toast “to the law”. We quickly corrected her.
We don’t toast the law, we toast justice.
That’s because the law is an instrument. Justice is an ideal.
And the two are often strangers to each other.

Standing out in the pouring rain filming and recording frogs calling is one of my favourite things to do.

Geography vocabulary: RAIN SHADOW
Land that has been forced to become a desert because mountain ranges blocked rain. On one side of the mountain, wet weather systems drop rain and snow. On the other (rain shadow side) all rain is blocked.

Not only excellent idea, but brilliantly presented. Also food for thought for all school students wondering why bother with maths.

Yesterday morning I captured an incredibly brief and rare event, the ISS transiting the 4% illuminated moon during the daytime. #astrophotography #space #opteam

E.coli is NOT a pathogenic bacteria in the gut. It is healthy normal flora.
Is it only good for the 'gram? 📸

Amazing the number of coming outs one has to have to get through life, but I’ve found it gets easier w time & also, at least where I’ve lived/worked, has become less of a thing over time. Wishing all those on their coming out journeys all the v best, I know how tough it can be!

This female Superb Parrot is lerping! Lerps are the little sugary houses of Psyllid bugs, which are often on the undersides of leaves. Many critters, including some #HungryParrots, love to eat them! Apparently they're quite tasty!
