I don’t really know how to categorise these books but I guess popular science covers it… These books are one of the biggest reasons I decided to study physics. They captured my interest, showed me how interesting science could and should be, and made me realise that if I wanted to take this further, I’d need to go to university to study it.

About Me
I'm Hannah, a 29 year old student studying on the Foundation Engineering and Physical Sciences degree at the University of Nottingham.
For a long time, I've wanted to retrain as a physicist. Even while I was doing my first degree in 2008, it was something I had started thinking about more and more. Last September, I decided to throw caution to the wind in order to follow my passion.
Before I took the first step, I spent many years trying to find stories of people who had made similar changes, but there wasn't all that much to go on. I had so many questions that I couldn't find answers to, so I decided that when I began studying I would make videos to try and answer some of those questions. So that's what I'm doing! Oh and it can't hurt to brush up on my speaking and presenting skills while I'm at it.
