			The acclaimed ''[[The Science of Discworld\|Science of Discworld]]'' centred around an original [[Terry Pratchett\|Pratchett]] story about the [[Wizards]] of [[Discworld]]. In it they accidentally witnessed the creation and evolution of our universe, a plot which was interleaved with a [[Jack Cohen\|Cohen]] & [[Ian Stewart\|Stewart]] non-fiction narrative about Big Science. In ''The Science of Discworld II'' our authors join forces again to see just what happens when the wizards meddle with history in a battle against the elves for the future of humanity on Earth. London is replaced by a dozy Neanderthal village. The Renaissance is given a push. The role of fat women in art is developed. And one very famous playwright gets born and writes ''The Play''. Weaving together a fast-paced Discworld novelette with cutting-edge scientific commentary on the evolution and development of the human mind, culture, language, art, and science, this is a book in which ‘the hard science is as gripping as the fiction’. (''The Times'')
