Review by S. Smith (Author, Scientific Reviewer) ....Scrumptious mind-fodder. Complex scientific theories are dished up in an exemplary easy-to-read manner, both in the language used and in the layout on the page. This is popular science at its best, his hypotheses argued with enthusiasm, his every supportive example being in itself highly informative and entertaining. ....Excellent. Reads like being given a series of talks by one's favourite professor. Not only does the author deliver up, in entertaining and diverting fashion, scientific history, he works into it the narrative of his own journey of discovery, confesses his trepidations when going against accepted opinion, thus involving us in his temerity and gets us willing him on. Where scientific terms are unavoidable he explains them succinctly in layman's terms. And, in acknowledging that much of life is yet a mystery, so open is he about his own doubts that the reader soon learns to trust his every assertion as a genuinely held belief.
