General 19 The Floating Admiral Agatha Christie and Members of the Detection Club

n 1931, Agatha Christie, Dorothy L. Sayers and ten other crime writers from the newly-formed ‘Detection Club’ collaborated in publishing a unique crime novel. InI a literary game of consequences, each author would write one chapter, leaving G.K. Chesterton to write a typically paradoxical prologue and Anthony Berkeley to tie up all the loose ends. In addition, each of the authors provided their own solution in a sealed envelope, all of which appeared at the end of the book, with Agatha Christie’s ingenious conclusion acknowledged at the time to be ‘enough to make the book worth buying on its own’. Eighty years later, this rarest of all Agatha Christie books, out of print and forgott en for many years, is fi nally republished alongside the rest of her works. Beautifully packaged in a hardback edition reminiscent of the original 1930s murder mysteries, this new edition also features a new foreword by author Simon Brett , the current President of the Detection Club. Fans of Agatha Christie, Dorothy Sayers and Golden Age detective writing in general can once again try to solve the mystery of who killed Admiral Penistone and sent him drift ing down the River Whyn in the vicar’s dinghy! Th e esteemed authors who contributed to this novel were G. K. Chesterton, Canon Victor Whitechurch, G. D. H.

Virolution Frank Ryan

In the 150 years since publication of Darwin’s Th e Origin of Species, we discovered three main sources for the genetic variation that drives evolution – mutation, hybridisation and epigenetics. Th en in 2001 evidence for perhaps the most extraordinary cause of variation was simultaneously released by two organisations: embedded in the code of the human genome were large fragments derived from an unexpected source – viruses. Virolution is the product of a decade of research at the frontiers of the new science of viral symbiosis and the incredible potential it has against disease.

Frank Ryan is a consultant physician based in Sheffi eld, and a Fellow of The Royal College of Physicians, the Royal Society of Medicine and the Linnean Society of London. He is the internationally bestselling author of Virus-X: Tracking the New Killer Plagues, The Forgotten Plague (a New York Times Book of the Year) and Darwin’s Blind Spot.
