Dstl biscuit books

Series of non-technical guides to some of the areas where the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory is at the heart of innovation.

Dstl’s biscuit books are simple guides, designed for you to pick up and dip into when you’re enjoying a cup of tea and a biscuit. Each book is arranged in a series of easily digestible chunks covering different topics, aiming to inform, without being overly technical.

They help the people we work with, in MOD and beyond, to understand more about the work we do in areas like artificial intelligence and data science. You can then incorporate these concepts in your own work and talk to us about how we can collaborate on the science and technology inside UK defence and security.
