Salon XXX – Science, Arts & Psychology

Salon London's thirtieth event, like its others, explores the world of science, arts and psychology from fresh perspectives and with some inventive speakers. Tonight's triple-x bill – x-plore, x-amine and x-tinct – sees Caspar Henderson introduce his new 'Book of Barely Imagined Beings', in which he looks at strange and threatened animals throughout history, 'Just My Type' author Simon Garfield take an interactive journey through map plotting and reading, and Andrea Wulf chart the arrival of global science in the 18th century.
