Clifford A. Pickover received his PhD from Yale in Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry and has written more than 40 books and over 200 articles.

Arranged chronologically, each double-page spread has clear, concise explanations and full-colour illustrations on all the important concepts and achievements in physics, from ancient tools to speculative possibilities. Although an avowed physics-o-phobe, I found this totally absorbing; it is made very accessible by the engaging style of the author, who also wrote the hugely popular The Maths Book. A great gift for the enquiring mind! Lindy Hb
