The Globe (The Science of Discworld, #2)

The Globe (The Science of Discworld, #2)

Ian Stewart
3.9/5 ( ratings)
The planet Earth has picked up a parasite life-form - elves.

They get everywhere. And they like humans to be superstitious, fearful and frightened of thunder. They're after our future and must be stopped... but by who?

Enter the wizards of the Unseen University who, in the best-selling "Science of Discworld," unwittingly created Earth and our own universe. At the time they quite failed to notice humanity. But now, at last, they've found us.

"The Globe" is a unique book, 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.

The result - as the wizards grapple with the nature of Good and Evil, and history is rewritten several times over - is a fascinating and brilliantly original view of the world we live in.
