Episode 11. Winston Churchill's Science, Part 2: James Muller
About this episode
Winston Churchill's outsized role and oratory in wartime, from the Great Boer War at the turn of the century to World War II, are well known. Beyond politics and battle, Churchill also displayed a keen interest in technological development and scientific advancement, the subject of today's podcast, which is part 2 of a two-part series. To explore Churchill's connection to science and technology, I interviewed Jim Muller. Jim is a Professor in the Department of Political Science at the University of Alaska Anchorage. He is one of the world's foremost authorities on Winston Churchill as well as the academic chairman of the Churchill Centre and the author of many works on Churchill.
