Once, we sought absolutes, certainties, and facts to explain the world around us.

Author of numerous books, broadcaster, editor of popularscience.co.uk, and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, Brian Clegg has now written The Reality Frame, which takes the reader on a fascinating journey from empty space all the way to the human mind.
