Join us for RBC's April event: we'll explore the theme of "Futures" through "Nexus", by Yuval Noah Harari
About this Event

Welcome to the RBC Edinburgh event, where we'll be diving into April's theme, FUTURES, through this month's read, , by Yuval Noah Harari.
“Tremendous, thought-provoking and well reasoned. Harari gives us a vision of a rapidly approaching future that is both thrilling and chilling. If there is one book I would urge everyone to read - our political, corporate, cultural leaders especially, it is Nexus” - Stephen Fry

Inspired by our monthly non-fiction reads, our mix of part cocktail party, part creative classroom is a recipe that builds your reading habit while connecting with like minded people.


Delicious drinks are included, as well as engaging storytelling and space for conversations and sharing your own journeys across countries and continents.



Interested? Want to join us at our April event?

Try out the club with Eventbrite - new customers only. Ticket price includes access to the Edinburgh Rebel Book Club event plus a welcome drink (alcoholic + non-alcoholic options available).



Your host for the evening

Bryn Sherwood

Longtime RBC member and globetrotter, Bryn now wants to bring Rebel Book Club to his new found home. Balancing a love of the great outdoors, his springer spaniel and proper whiskey (alongside all-important books of course), he's looking forward to growing the non-fiction community in Scotland.

Biggest RBC learning: "So many to choose from. It has helped me inform my world view about universal basic income, reducing plastic, becoming vegetarian and designing your life to name just a few!"



More about Nexus, A Brief History of Information Networks from the Stone Age to AI

Stories brought us together.

Books spread our ideas – and our mythologies.

The internet promised infinite knowledge.

The algorithm learned our secrets – and then turned us against each other.

What will AI do?

NEXUS is the thrilling account of how we arrived at this moment, and the urgent choices we must now make to survive – and to thrive.
