Authors:Isaac Asimov , Tags:Science; History , Author sort:Asimov, Isaac , Languages:Languages:eng , Comments:Comments:Scientific method reigns supreme as “a tool for penetrating the complexities of the universe”; this superb one-volume guide provides a synthesis of what we have learned so far.Reviewers described earlier editions of this book as “a masterpiece of unpatronizing popularization” (Observer), exciting, authoritative and readable. Now, in this completely revised new edition, Asimov has once again produced a masterly summary of current knowledge inallthe physical and biological sciences — from subatomic particles to immense galaxies, from dinosaurs to bacteria. Only Asimov could make even Einstein accessible (without simplifying his ideas), and only Asimov could present all the vital topics of today in clear, non-technical terms: quarks and quasars, rockets and robots, intelligent machines and oncogenes, immune reactions and genetic engineering. More than that, his brilliantly comprehensive book is impressive testimony to his deep faith in “the unconquerability of the human spirit”.”Asimov is as fluent as ever” –The Times Educational Supplement”The text is ‘a jolly good read’, being clear, colourful and witty, with many a pleasing anecdote thrown in” –New Scientist
