I really enjoyed this book; thought that it was great. I'm interested in science and found this book to be both educational and entertaining. Reading this book changed the way I look at the world around me and inspired me to start studying science with the open university. This was the first Bill Bryson book that I read and even though I have read, and liked others of his, this was my favorite. From the first page, I was hooked! Sit back and Enjoy!! - Leo Fielding Write a review
