World Book Night

Forgive me for straying away from the usual rigorous scientific conversation on this blog :) but, as regular readers will know, I'm taking part in World Book Night on Saturday the 5th of March.

I'll be giving away loads of copies of Seamus Heaney's New Selected Poems along with thousands of other 'givers' around Ireland and the UK.

I'll give some of the books away as prizes in our Science Poetry Competition, the closing date for which has just passed. I'll bring you more finalists and the winners shortly. The rest I'll find deserving and worthy homes for in keeping with the spirit of the event - to distribute books primarily to those who might not neccesarily go out and purchase one.

I'll let you know how I get on. For now, here's a photo of some of the books. It's a bibliophile's dream!
