This book group will meet once per month, during the evening of the 3rd Monday of the month at 7:30pm. The location will move around each month but will usually aim to be in a gastro-pub so that you have the choice of dinner and a variety of beverages. We will discuss a book that has been turned into a film. While I suspect the discussion will focus mostly on the book, I hope that the conversation will also encompass the movie too: which medium best told the story? What was the most successful a …

This book club is for all economics minded people in London! Our aim is to read and discuss one every month on a given topic. One supplementary objective is to discover new ideas, books, authors and schools of thought. To do so, members can vote on which book they want to read every month from a shortlist of books. For example in February 2013, we are reading 'Think, Fast and Slow' by Daniel Kahneman which was selected from a list containing Nudge and Animal Spirits. "Most people would sooner …

Do you like to meet new people and chat for ages over a cup of tea on a Sunday afternoon? If you can answer yes to all of these questions, you should join this book club!

Unlike most others, our book club offers an opportunity to discuss a recent read while enjoying food and wine.

The £5 requested when you RSVP is taken off the restaurant bill at the meeting. …
