The World According to Physics – with Jim Al-Khalili

Jim Al-Khalili explores the fundamental concepts of space, time, energy, and matter, and describes the three pillars of modern physics: quantum theory, relativity, and thermodynamics.
Jim’s book ‘The World According to Physics’ is available now: https://geni.us/tthctKn

Jim Al-Khalili has presented The Life Scientific on Radio 4 since 2011. Although his ‘day job’ is as an academic professor of physics at the University of Surrey, where he also has a chair in the public engagement in science, he has achieved wider prominence as a public scientist, author and broadcaster. He has fronted a number of radio and television documentaries, mainly on BBC4, including Chemistry: A Volatile History, which was nominated for a BAFTA in 2010.

This digital lecture was recorded on 8 April 2020 using Webinarjam.
