Want to understand more about our world but get confused by its complexity?



Dr GILLIAN TURNER from Victoria University has a passionate interest in the Earth's magnetic field. She has won awards for excellence and innovation in science teaching, and has a wonderful way of explaining difficult ideas in simple language.  Her new book "NORTH POLE SOUTH POLE " covers the epic quest to solve the great mystery of the Earth's magnetism.  It is clearly written & beautifully illustrated and Ruth Todd reviews it on Mornings this week.
