Take time out to visit Cheltenham’s Festival of Literature. The excuse?
Science Day is on Saturday, 19 October, when you can discover Lewis Wolpert’s
views on creative gloom, hear Roger Gosden on keeping age at bay and Steve Jones
assert that philosophy, theology and politics are governed by our genes. Susan
Greenfield and Nancy Lane consider sexism in science. More information on the
festival, which runs from 11 to 20 October, from the town hall (Tel: 01242
227979, Fax: 01242 256457). And having done the science, you can listen to Doris
Lessing, Beryl Bainbridge or Barbara Cartland.
