Explore the topics history sometimes forgets: the tastes, textures, sounds, and smells that were an important part of our ancestor’s lives.
Welcome to the SciFri Book Club page about Dinner with King Tut by Sam Kean. You can read the book, join our community space, attend an event, sign up for our email newsletter, or send us a message via our contact page.
This October, the SciFri Book Club will read Dinner with King Tut: How Rogue Archaeologists Are Re-Creating the Sights, Sounds, Smells, and Tastes of Lost Civilizations by Sam Kean.
This Book Club season kicks off Wednesday, October 1, and you can read along with us! Check back here for more updates about this Book Club pick soon.
If you’d like to purchase a physical copy, we encourage you to start local! Check out the SciFri Book Club partner bookstores and libraries—if you’re in the area, consider supporting your local bookseller or public library (plus, mention our Book Club for a percentage off your purchase at participating shops!).
If they don’t have the book in stock or you’d rather purchase online, you can support Science Friday by buying your copy on our Bookshop.org page.
And as you start reading, join us on our online community space: the SciFri Book Club is on Mighty Networks, a platform where we can gather, read and discuss science books together. We’ve built this community space to create a better way for readers to stay connected with other Book Clubbers, and we hope you’ll join us there!
Subscribe to SciFri Book Club emails to stay updated on our monthly read sand join us for community discussions. We’ll send emails a few times per week.
