Welcome to the Globe Bookgroup blog! Here, members of the group can post messages about past and present books, and catch up with other members. The Globe Bookgroup meets around every 4-5 weeks on a Thursday night in The Globe pub, Baker Street. We get very excited about choosing and voting for our books. We don't do organised discussions or heavy hardbacks.

Bill Bryson

Hi All,

The John Harding is on its way to me. Meanwhile I would strongly recommend A Short History of Nearly Everything. Bill Bryson's dazzling popular science book. I am not even half way and am riveted by his examination of the Earth, the Universe, atoms etc.

I should have learnt some of this at school - science was badly taught and I am consequently a real ignoramus in all such matters

Julian
