Book Group - Non-Fiction
| Group Leader:- Jeremy Shearmur | |
| Venue:- Members' Homes | |
| Time:- 10.30-12.30 Fourth Thursday of the month. |
Our small group meets once a to discuss books agreed by members of many different kinds.
Coming up:
May - Chris van Tulleken’s Ultra-Processed People is a striking
study by a medical researcher and broadcaster about the harm
that certain kinds of ‘ultra-processed’ food may be doing to us. He explains his case well, and documents his argument with extensive references to the scientific literature, but there is a lot about the book which is controversial.
June 7 - David Grann’s The Wager is a tale of shipwreck, mutiny and murder from the mid-C18.
June 28 - Nick Bryant’s When America Stopped Being Great is an
interesting and very readable discussion – by a former BBC
correspondent – of America’s path from Reagan to Trump.
