Zoe Cormier
Zoe Cormier is an author, journalist, speaker and
events producer with a background in biology. Her first book, Sex, Drugs
& Rock n’ Roll: The Science of Hedonism and the Hedonism of Science –
hand-picked by The Guardian as a “must- read” – was published by Profile
Books in August 2014. Reviewed with wide acclaim by such diverse publications

these “base” pursuits are key to what makes us human.

literary events, universities, government institutions, and industry workshops.
