The Penultimate Curiosity sets out to answer one of the most profound questions about the development of human thought: why is it that throughout the long journey from cave painting to quantum physics what we now refer to as 'science' and 'religion' have been so closely entangled?

On Tuesday 2 February 2016, the artist Roger Wagner and Professor of Nanomaterials Andrew Briggs, will discuss their book and show excerpts from a forthcoming documentary in the Oxford Museum of Natural History.
