JON RONSON
So youve been publicly shamed
18.30 19.30| 9
Glasgow Royal Concert Hall
Jon Ronson has travelled the world meeting recipients
of high-profile public shamings. The shamed are
people like us people who, say, made a joke
on social media that came out badly, or made a
mistake at work. Once their transgression is revealed,
collective outrage circles with the force of a hurricane
and the next thing they know theyre being torn apart
by an angry mob, jeered at, demonized, sometimes
even fired from their job.
Jon will be here talking about the updated
paperback version of his powerful and hilarious, yet
deeply honest book about modern life, which is full
of eye-opening truths about the escalating war on
human flaws and the very scary part we all
play in it.

Lost Buildings from the Tower

19.30 20.30| 9
Buildings are just like us. They can be born into
wealth or poverty. They have parents gods, kings,
emperors, governments, visionaries and madmen
and friends and enemies. They have jobs, duties
and responsibilities. They can succeed and fail.
They can live. And they can die. Moving from the
very beginnings of civilisation, right up to the digital
horizons of cyberspace James Crawford will present
a fascinating illustrated talk based on his incredibly
well received book Fallen Glory which pieces together
the stories of twenty of the worlds most fascinating
lost and ruined structures, stories which are packed
with drama and intrigue. Chaired by Francis McKee.
In association with Festival of Architecture 2016.

Woodstock: Small Town Talk
19.30 20.30| 9
Think Woodstock and the mind turns to the seminal
1969 festival that crowned a seismic decade of sex,
drugs and rock n roll. Renowned music critic and
rock journalist Barney Hoskyns recreates Woodstocks
community of brilliant dysfunctional musicians,
opportunistic hippie capitalists and scheming dealers
drawn to the area by Dylan and The Band. Central to
the book is the broodingly powerful presence of Albert
Grossman manager of Dylan, The Band, Janis Joplin
and Todd Rundgren and Big Daddy of a personal
fiefdom in Bearsville that encompassed studios,
restaurants and his own record label. Chaired by
Nicola Meighan.

TOM DEVINE
The Tannahill Lecture
19.30 21.00| 12
Restless Nation: Scotland 1999 to 2016 and Beyond.
There can be no relationship in Europes history
more creative, significant, vexed and uneasy than
that between Scotland and England. Tom Devines
seminal new book explores this extraordinary history
in all its ambiguity, from the seventeenth century
to the present. Scotland and England have broadly
benefitted from each others presence for long
periods nobody questioned the union which joined
them. But as Devine makes clear, it has for the most
part been a relationship based on consent, not force,
on mutual advantage, rather than antagonism and
it has always held the possibility of a political parting
of the ways.
ADAM WHITE
Motown: The Sound of Young America

When the Motown Revue played Glasgow in 1965
Scotland got a first-hand taste of the Detroit-based

hugely successful production line of suave, sassy and
sophisticated music. Adam Whites book is packed
with fresh insights gleaned from scores of interviews
with key players, revealing the workings of the
Motown machine which delivered hit after hit in the
60s, 70s and 80s for Stevie Wonder, Smokey Robinson
& the Miracles, Diana Ross & the Supremes, Marvin
Gaye, the Jackson 5, the Temptations and
many more.

Newsnight, where his expertise includes energy, cybersecurity, espionage and the politics and economics
of Eastern Europe. In his book Cyberphobia he lays
bare the issues surrounding internet security and with
our ever increasing dependence on smart-phones this
threat is unlikely to diminish. He also explores the most
successful defensive cyber-strategies, options for
tracking down transgressors and argues that we are
moving into a post-digital age where once again faceto-face communication will be the only interaction
that really matters.

If you play football, the chances are you play
5-a-side its by far the most popular version of the
game in the UK. But its much more than that: its an
unbeatable fitness regime, its a social club, its an
elite sport, it is what we do when we get too old for
jumpers for goalposts.
The Five-a-side Bible tells the whole story.
Theres sports science, the low-down on tactics and
nutrition, how to use warm-ups and warm-downs. But
theres also the fun side of fives: crazy team names,
outlandish excuses for not playing, kit disasters and a
bucket list of the worlds most iconic 5-a-side pitches.

Neuroscientist and a stand-up comedian Dr Dean
Burnetts The Idiot Brain tells us everything we

attention mechanisms to memory processing,
the neuroscience of sleep and the psychology of
superstition, the surprising workings of the brain and
the bemusing behaviours these cause in everyday life.
Unpredictable and entertaining, Burnett explains
why memory is like a doting mother, why tall people
are more intelligent, why criticism is more powerful
than praise, how glass of wine can refresh your
memory, and why you cant be a little bit OCD.

In 1992, Magnus MacFarlane-Barrow had an idea

the lives of others.
Magnus tells how a series of miraculous
circumstances and an overwhelming display of love
from those around him led to the creation of Marys
Meals; an organisation that could hold the key to
eradicating child hunger altogether. This humble,
heart-warming yet powerful story has never been
more relevant in our society of plenty and privilege.
It will open your eyes to the extraordinary impact
that one person can make.

Clare Morrall, author of the Man Booker Prizeshortlisted Astonishing Splashes of Colour, creates
a startling vision of the future in a world not so very
far from our own, in her latest novel When the Floods
Came. In a world prone to violent flooding, Britain,
ravaged 20 years earlier by a deadly virus, has been
largely cut off from the rest of the world
The Stopped Heart is the finest novel to date from
Julie Myerson. During a ferocious storm, a red-haired
stranger appears in the garden of a small farming
cottage. This devastating novel deals beautifully
with profound loss, sexual longing, love and true evil.

JOHN MOORE
Glasgow: Mapping the City
12.00 13.00| 9
Maps can tell much about a place that traditional
histories fail to communicate. John Moore gives
fascinating insights into topics such as: the
development of the Clyde and its shipbuilding
industry, the villages which were gradually subsumed
into the city, what lies underneath the city streets, the
growth of Glasgow during the Industrial Revolution,
the development of transport, the citys green spaces,
the health of Glasgow, the city as a wartime target,
and its regeneration in the 1980s as the host city of
one of the UKs five National Garden Festivals.
GILES WATERFIELD
The Peoples Galleries:
Art Museums in Britain 1800 1914
12.00 13.00| 9
The Peoples Galleries traces the rise of art museums
in Britain through to World War I. This richly illustrated
book argues that these regional museums, such as
Kelvingrove, represented a new type of institution: an
art gallery for a working-class audience, appropriate
for the rapidly expanding cities and shaped by
liberal ideals. As their broad appeal weakened with
the new century, they adapted and became more
conventional. In his illustrated talk, Giles will study
the patrons and the public, the collecting policies,
the temporary exhibitions, and the architecture of
these institutions, as well as the complex range
of reasons for their foundation.
JO MARCHANT
The Science of Mind Over Body
12.00 13.00| 9
The field of mind-body medicine is plagued by wild

But that doesnt mean the mind plays no role in health.
By taking a scientific approach to understanding
how our mental state influences our physiology, can
we finally live in tune with our bodies in a way that is
based on evidence, not fantasy? In her book Cure,
Dr Jo Marchant delves deep into the latest scientific
research and offers a new and thought-provoking
view of what it means to be human. Chaired by

TREVOR ROYLE
Culloden
13.30 14.30| 9
The Battle of Culloden has gone down in history as
the last major battle fought on British soil: a vicious
confrontation between Scottish forces supporting the
Stuart claim to the throne and the English Royal Army.
But this wasnt just a conflict between the Scots and
the English, the battle was also part of a much larger
campaign to protect the British Isles from the growing
threat of a French invasion.
In Trevor Royles lively and provocative history looks
afresh at the period and unveils its true significance,
not only as the end of a struggle for the throne but the
beginning of a new global power.
ELIZABETH BUCHAN,
KATE WILLIAMS AND ISABELLE GREY
Dangerous Women
13.30 14.30| 9
Come along to this fascinating literary discussion
about powerful and subversive women with
bestselling writers Elizabeth Buchan, Kate Williams
and chaired by crime writer Isabelle Grey. Throughout
history, men have tried to repress and silence women,
the accusations being, from St Jerome onwards, that
they are weak-minded, puny and sexually incontinent.
Clearly Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, Charlotte Bronte and
Violette Szabo would not agree. Nor do many writers
whose novels have portrayed women as powerful,
influential and subversive not necessarily in the way
that men recognized. This event will appeal to readers
of historical romance and contemporary domestic
noir, through to stalwart non-fiction fans.
