About

Paul Ham is a celebrated historian of conflict and the ideas that people are willing to live and die for. Born in Australia and living now in Paris, he is the author of 12 books including Kokoda, Hiroshima Nagasaki, Young Hitler and 1914.

Now, joined in conversation by his dear friend Richard Fidler, he delves into his deepest territory yet with The Soul: A History of the Human Mind.

In this uniquely accessible approach to human history, Ham considers the ever-changing concept of consciousness and the dichotomies that arise between spiritual and the scientific understandings of it. A milestone book, this will be a fascinating conversation between two brilliant minds and a highlight of our 2024 calendar.
