Alistair Thompson

Editorial Assistant, Penguin Life

I assist the wonderful team and their brilliant lists at Penguin Life, working closely with Senior Commissioning Editor, Amy McWalters on a broad range of non-fiction titles. I love books that challenge the norm and make complex ideas accessible, all while evoking change and conversation, on a personal and cultural level.

I have previously worked elsewhere on books by Oliver Burkeman, Katalin Karikó, and Dr Christine Rosen. Authors I’m currently working with include Dr Rangan Chatterjee, Dr Jackson Katz, and Martha Swales.
