Mark Miodownik’s 'Stuff Matters' has won the 2014 Royal Society Winton Prize for Science Books. Miodownik, a professor in material science, told the BBC: "I feel honoured, happy and overwhelmed, it does feel dream like to me, these things don't normally happen. When I started, I had no idea how to write." 

Watch the video of the award ceremony with host Professor Alice Roberts celebrating this year's shortlist, and Royal Society President Sir Paul Nurse presenting the prize.
