Reviews

"Neil deGrasse Tyson and Donald Goldsmith dip into astronomy, physics, geology, biology and chemistry with a racy and non-mathematical style. They encourage us to search for answers that could overturn much of what we think we already know. The task is daunting but the excitement glows from every page." Prof David Hughes, New Scientist Magazine
