New book, ‘You are Enough’, is out now!

I’m delighted to have an essay in this anthology, ‘You are Enough’ edited by Robin Taylor and Robin Cangie, published by Small Robin Press and out now.

My article is on why having a small number of friends is all our brains can cope with 😂 and explains what that magic number is. It’s based on research I did as a primatologist, and on the brilliant, ground-breaking ideas of my then supervisor, Professor Robin Dunbar.

Appropriately, the book is on why small is beautiful.

Here’s the blurb: “A collection of resilient voices share their personal takes on what makes their size–or lack thereof–powerful. From illness diagnosis to art, finding community to baking delicious recipes, eight outstanding authors provide their insight into what makes small just the right size.”

Available to buy from Small Robin Press.
