Description

RSA Vision



2009 has been a year to remember from the anxious South African elections to the hope generated by the election of Barack Obama, from worldwide recession to the green shoots of recovery, from Russia's growing ambition to the Copenhagen Conference on climate change, and from the Ashes rivalry to the possibility of another all-English Champion's League final, all in the UN's Year of Astronomy.

We welcome back Ben Schott, author of the phenomenally popular Schott's Miscellanies and Almanacs, to offer a witty review of 2009. As well as looking back at the major news stories that defined the year, Ben will also be sharing some of his more obscure discoveries, and making predictions for the year ahead, in inimitable Schott style.
