The Big History UK group are proud to announce that Australian historian David Christian has agreed to be their Honorary President.

“Big History” is the interdisciplinary study of the history of the universe, the Earth and mankind from the beginning of time to the present day. The name was coined by Professor David Christian of Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia, and the subject was enthusiastically adopted by Bill Gates, who has supported the development of the Big History Project, which aims to deliver free teaching resources to schools throughout the world.
