Synopsis

Arising from the 2023 Darwin College Lectures, this book presents eight essays on the theme of isolation, each written by an academic with an exceptional passion for the creation and dissemination of knowledge. Together, the essays constitute an interdisciplinary volume spanning the humanities and sciences, designed for a wide appeal.

Isolation features contributions by Christine van Ruymbeke, Amy Nethery, Adrian Kent, Jane Francis, Philip Jones, Arik Kershenbaum, Heonik Kwon and Amrita Narlikar, all distinguished academics and excellent communicators.

The subjects covered range from solitude, asylum, secrets, a continent, light, aliens, a country, and trade, but by intent, not the pandemic.
