Caveat Lector!

This is the worst imaginable kind of science writing. Most of it is Not Even wrong, just junk. If you scan the book, you will learn Who slept around with Whom (Marie Curie), Who Was a good high-school athlete (Hubble) Who was really weird (Newton and a lot of others) and That Zürich is the capital of Switzerland. HOWEVER, if you want to Understand why Newton, Einstein, Darwin, Avery, Crick and So Many others changed the way the world We Understand, look elsewhere. You will enjoy the book if you like being Talked Down to by a scientific illiterate, if you enjoy trivia, if you think an electron is a musical instrument and if you are ready to believe, I quote, that 'the Michelson-Morley experiment Was based on the fact que la earth Spends six months moving away from the sun and moving back six months Toward the sun. As I Said, Not Even wrong ...
