The Book

If you think the groves of academe are all stuffiness, elbow patches and greying old men... think again.

Academia Obscura is an irreverent glimpse inside the ivory tower, exposing the eccentric and slightly unhinged world of university life. Take a trip through the spectrum of academic oddities and unearth the Easter eggs buried in peer reviewed papers, the weird and wonderful world of scholarly social media, and rats in underpants.

The book was crowdfunded by hundreds of oddball academics and published by Unbound (🪦) / Penguin Random House (🐧🏠).
